I have a new ESP32-S3-DevKitC-1 board that I am attempting to interface with Arduino IDE v2.2.1. However, I'm not having any success.
When I plug the USB cable into the USB port of the board, the 3.3V Power LED is on and the RGB LED is solid green. If I plug the USB cable into the UART port, the 3.3V Power LED is on and the RGB LED is solid red.
When I'm in the Arduino IDE, I select ESP32S3 Dev Module and successfully connect to the board with an open COM port, as per the status bar of Arduino IDE. However, I'm unable to load any sketch.
When connected to the USB connector on the board, I attempted to upload the blink sketch from the examples and get the following error:
Sketch uses 281361 bytes (21%) of program storage space. Maximum is 1310720 bytes.
Global variables use 14540 bytes (4%) of dynamic memory, leaving 313140 bytes for local variables. Maximum is 327680 bytes.

A serial exception error occurred: Write timeout
Note: This error originates from pySerial. It is likely not a problem with esptool, but with the hardware connection or drivers.

If I connect to the UART connector on the board and attempt to upload the same sketch, I get this error:
Sketch uses 281361 bytes (21%) of program storage space. Maximum is 1310720 bytes.
Global variables use 14540 bytes (4%) of dynamic memory, leaving 313140 bytes for local variables. Maximum is 327680 bytes.

Could anyone offer any suggestions as to what I need to do to get this board to communicate/operate properly?
Cheers,
