Pot head problems.

(1/4) > >>

NOOBinDistress:
It says in the 50 buck tutorial  that once I find the pot head I should plug it into my microcontroler and then send a 0 signal?  Idk know how to do that? Do I have to put the photovore software on first? Please help. THanks.

Admin:
hmmmm good point, forgot that this would be a problem for some people for the $50 robot . . .

Download this .hex file and upload it to your ATmega8

You dont need to compile anything, as I already did that for you.

This program will tell the microcontroller to send a signal at 1.5ms, the signal your servos should recieve to hold at the zero position.

(note that I didnt test this code on my robot, so let me know if it works or not)

NOOBinDistress:
THanks. So I have to load this up onto my microcontroller and then do it? Also this may be another problem please read the post above. Thanks.

NOOBinDistress:
SO how exactly do I load it onto my microcontroler once I plug it in? Do I have to do something in Avr? Please if you have time give me step by step instructions. ;D Thanks.
