AVRISP mkII use 6pin FRC connector for ISP while Spark V robot uses 10 pin FRC connector
for programming. We need to use AVR ISP adaptor to convert 6 pin to 10 pin connector which is
available on NEX Robotics website. It comes free with the AVRISP mkII programmer if it is
purchased from NEX Robotics website.
Step 3: Connect AVR ISP adaptor between robot and AVRISP mkII. Insert 10pin FRC
connector in the Spark V ATMEGA16 robot and turn on the power.
Step 4: Go to Main tab
Select "ATMEGA16" microcontroller.
Click on the "Read Signature" button.
It will read the signature and if its matches with the microcontroller signature then we are ready
to load hex file on the robot.
