Title: I need some help to juat test my motors.
Post by: galannthegreat on February 12, 2009, 10:24:00 PM

I need some help with testing my bot, I use the code:

Code: [Select]

output_high(PIN_D5);
   output_low(PIN_D4);
   output_high(PIN_D6);
   output_low(PIN_D7);
Basically pins D4 and D5 controls one motor, and D6 and D7 the other, am I missing anything or is this correct?

What is your electronic setup?

You cant just connect a DC motor to a microcontroller pin

I know my wiring is correct, I just know I'm wrong in the programming end.

After you set the pins, try an infinte while loop that does nothing.
