Help : difficulty to program

#1

Hello,

I need help.
I bought and built the IR “tank” robot
I wanted to start working with Scratch and I followed the instructions.
I downloaded the firmware … but I did manage to do anything under Scratch

Then, I have all done again in the Arduino environment that I know very well:
I downloaded the latest version 1.6.0, I choose the good COM and the Leonardo card.
I installed the USB driver
I installed the makeblock library
I arrive without mistake to download different exemples.
Red and blue lights run during the downloading and all seem OK at this time

But when I download the IR exemple, IR lights each time when I press the button on the remote control but the motors do not move (of course, motors are connected on the ME Card)
When I download the buzzer exemple. The buzzer works 2 times at the initialization and nothing after.
No difference between computer supply or battery supply.
No difference when I change ports

Can you help me?

Thierry

Hi @titi,

I’m sorry for the terrible programming experience for you. Could you upload a picture of your IR tank? So that I could check the cable connection for you at first.

Yessss, I found the problem.

On Youtube movies, the Arduino Leonardo is selected but the last starter kit blue didn’t have an Me BaseBoard (Base on Arduino Leonardo) but Makeblock Orion controller (Arduino UNO).
Then, in Arduino environment, I replaced the Arduino Leonardo card by Arduino Uno Card and the problem is solved.

Thanks
Thierry
