Hey there, try this:

/* Comment this out to disable prints and save space */
#define BLYNK_PRINT DebugSerial

/* Fill-in your Template ID (only if using Blynk.Cloud) */
//#define BLYNK_TEMPLATE_ID   "YourTemplateID"


// You could use a spare Hardware Serial on boards that have it (like Mega)
#include <SoftwareSerial.h>
SoftwareSerial DebugSerial(2, 3); // RX, TX

#include <BlynkSimpleStream.h>

// You should get Auth Token in the Blynk App.
// Go to the Project Settings (nut icon).
char auth[] = "YourAuthToken";


void setup()
{
  // Debug console
  DebugSerial.begin(9600);

  // Blynk will work through Serial
  // Do not read or write this serial manually in your sketch
  Serial.begin(9600);
  Blynk.begin(Serial, auth);
}

void loop()
{
  Blynk.run();
}

I tried this code that is example from the library, but it doesn’t work… the device is still offline. (I replace char auth and BLYNK_TEMPLATE_ID with my information and nothing.)

Thank you for your help @John93

Your script is trying to connect to blynk-cloud.com, which is the Legacy server.
You could try editIng the script and changing the server to blynk.cloud and maybe port 8080 but not sure if USB connection is supported in Blynk IoT. Normally the Template ID is required and I don’t think the script has been updated to accommodate this.

that’s it! @PeteKnight

I edited the blynk-ser.bat file by changing the line set SERV_ADDR=blynk-cloud.com to set SERV_ADDR=blynk.cloud and it is now connected. Thank you @PeteKnight

Excellent! Wasn’t sure that it would work, but glad it did.

hello;
i have tried editing the blynk-ser.bat file but i am getting SetAddr(): gethostbyname(“blynk.com”) ERROR Unknown error (11001). I dont know if you can share the edited blynk-ser.bat script

Should be blynk.cloud not blynk.com

I have the same problem with the same configuration. I add some code to the loop() to turn onboard LED on (pin13), but i does’t work, maybe the program is loop in Blynk.begin(). by the way, I tried to change the web address, but still offline. any advices? thanks a lot!

@Jacky I suggest that you create a new “Need help with my project” topic and provide all of the requested information, plus any other information that you think may be relevant.

Thanks a lot! Finally the solution is the same to collect the WEB address.

but the console webpage still says the arduino is offline.
what am i doing wrong?

My guess is that you are writing debug data (in the form of serial print commands probably) to the same serial port that you are using to connect to Blynk.

However, it’s impossible to say, as you haven’t posted your sketch, or any other data that’s necessary to understand which version of Blynk you are using and what other issues may be related to your problem.

That’s why It’s best to start a new “Need help…” topic and provide all of the requested information, along with any addition information that you think is relevant.

Pete.
