I am working with a boe bot with a ultra sonic sensor but every program i try isn't working.I was just checking if anyone else had a program i could try but i set it up with the sensor going into the beard board not going in to the servo 15 slot.

    Hi,

    What software are you using? What is it not doing? More information might help troubleshoot your problem. :smile:

    I have a Boe Bot with the Ping using a slightly tweaked version of the "Roaming with Ping" software from the Ping product page.

    Daltwal: Is your sensor a Parallax Ping, or not? Not all US sensors work like the Ping; ergo Ping software won't work.

    Does your Ping work for sure? Has it been damaged or is it hooked up incorrectly? It may be damaged if it was hooked up wrong even briefly.

    Plenty of info and code at http://www.parallax.com/StoreSearchResults/tabid/768/txtSearch/ping/List/0/SortField/4/ProductID/92/Default.aspx

    Code direct link: http://www.parallax.com/Portals/0/Downloads/src/bs/28015-BScode-v1.4.zip Use the BS2 code for BoeBot (the second file), which already has the Ping hooked up to pin 15.
