Hi everyone!
I changed the driver board from the ULN2003 to the L298N. If I press the "Get" button in the Settingstab, it refreshes but the old board (ULN2003) stillappears. Were can I change the version of the driver board i use? Do I have to reprogram the Arduino?
Thanks for your help.
Best Klaus
btw: the rotator works even though it has the "wrong" driver board in the "setting" tab
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
If you do not, but simply change the hardware, that does noit work. Your hardware was configued to use a ULN2003 driver. So unless you reprogram the firmware (having set L298N in config.h then everytime the firmware runs it still thinks its using a ULN2003.
If you make a change to any hardware then yes, you have to generate new firmware in Arduino IDE and reprogram the controller
