To program the board, the "Arduino UNO R4 Boards" package needs to be installed.
The development board has two different microcontrollers, a Renesas RA4M1 and an ESP32-S3.
By default, the ESP32-S3 module acts as a serial bridge, managing the connection with your computer. It also handles restarting the main MCU, Renesas RA4M1, when necessary, for example, when receiving a new sketch and resetting.
The UNO R4 WiFi also exposes the ESP32's data lines, so you can program the ESP32 directly. These data lines are exposed through a 3x2 header at the top of the board.
WARNING:
Please note that the ESP32 comes with default firmware installed, which is set to communicate with the RA4M1 chip. Any direct programming of the ESP32 will overwrite that firmware, and communication between the chips may be disrupted until the default firmware is restored.
Ensure the development board is not powered or connected to the PC.
To upload firmware to the ESP32-S3, we need to put the chip into download mode by connecting the download pin to GND.
The download pin can be found on the 3x2 header at the top of the board (next to the USB socket).
The easiest way is to use a female-to-female cable and connect the indicated pins as shown in the image above. At this point, the board should be powered off. Once the pins are connected, you can connect the board to the PC and remove the jumper cable.
Check in Device Manager under Universal Serial Bus devices, it should appear as USB JTAG/serial debug unit.
Download and extract the .ZIP file available in the DOWNLOADS section:
unor4wifi-update-windows.zip
Open your system's terminal application inside the extracted folder.
Hold down the ⇧Shift key and right-click in an empty space inside the extracted folder. From the context menu, select Open command window here / Open PowerShell window here.
Run the command: esptool write_flash -b 115200 0x0 firmwareUNOR4-WIFI-S3-0.4.1.bin
After running the command, disconnect and reconnect the development board to the PC.
In Device Manager, a new COM port will appear, which you can use for programming the UNO R4 WiFi board.
