Arduino Library Update

Post by Basicmicro Support »

We have replaced the old Arduino library for Roboclaw with an updated version. It is available from the same download links as the old version. This version has been tested with Arduino 1.6.8. Please see the example code for the new constructor syntax. We are now using the builtin SoftwareSerial library.

Well, I don't want to get into the obvious.

But I tried out with my 2x5A (V4) and the Packet Serial still don't work.

I know it's because is not updated, but I tried.

Thanks for the update library, I hope with my incoming new 2x7A will be everything fine.

Yes, the new library will not work with old firmware. You do need to get it updated if you want to work with the latest libraries. All 2x7A boards have USB so they can be updated by the user so they will always work with the latest libraries.
