Activitybot w/ Simple IDE Problem
hello all, this is probably a very dumb question but here goes. I just bought an activitybot for my 8 year old daughter (and myself
) and the servos will not work. I am using Simple ide with c. I am trying to run the calibrate program and it just sits there. The leds light up when I turn the wheels so I know that something works. Here is the weird thing. I wrote the calibrate program in spin using propeller tool.... and it works. I wrote a few more in spin just to test the servos and some other things and it works. Whats up with the Simple ide compiler? Is there something I am missing?
Thanks in advance...

Have you tried any of the Tutorials?

Given your symptoms, I'm wondering if you have the servo cables plugged into the ports (P12 & P13) that the Learn objects expect.

The .h files only tell part of the story. Here is a link with 11 pages of info on how to approach the libraries: http://learn.parallax.com/propeller-c-library-studies.
