Customer:

I’m using Dasduino ConnectPLUS with Arduino IDE 2.3. I need a servo motor for my project. I tried using both the Servo.h library and ServoEsp32, but both give me compilation errors.

Original message (Croatian)

Koristim Dasduino Connect plus i Arduino IDE 2.3.

Za svoj projekt trebam servo motor. Poušala sam sa bibliotekom servo.h i sa ServoEsp32 ali obje mi daju grešku kod kompilacije.

Molim za pomoć .

Soldered Support:

Can you send the error and a screenshot of your Tools menu in Arduino? That would help me determine where the issue is.

The board definition should be set to Dasduino ConnectPLUS, and compiling a regular example with a WS-LED or “Hello World” over Serial should work and the code should upload successfully. Can you try that with the Dasduino?

Original message (Croatian)

Možeš li poslati grešku i screenshot svog Tools izbornika u Arduinu? To bi mi pomoglo da utvrdim gdje je greška.

Board definition bi trebao biti postavljen na Dasduino ConnectPLUS, i compile običnog primjera sa WS-LEDicom ili “Hello World” preko Seriala bi trebao raditi i kod bi se trebao uspješno uploadati. Možeš li napraviti to sa Dasduinom?

The Servo.h library generates the following error:

WARNING: library Servo claims to run on avr, megaavr, sam, samd, nrf52, stm32f4, mbed, mbed_nano, mbed_portenta, mbed_rp2040, renesas, renesas_portenta, renesas_uno architecture(s) and may be incompatible with your current board which runs on esp32 architecture(s).

Which library should I use for servo motors on Dasduino ConnectPLUS?

Soldered Support:

Dasduino ConnectPLUS is an ESP32 microprocessor, so you need a library designed for it.

First, make sure you have installed the Dasduino ConnectPLUS board definition in Arduino. Here’s a tutorial on how to do this (step 2 at this link): https://soldered.com/learn/add-inkplate-6-board-definition-to-arduino-ide/

Then you need to install a different library for Servo. Here’s one library I found for this: GitHub - jkb-git/ESP32Servo: Arduino-compatible servo library for the ESP32 · GitHub

Here’s how to install it:

  • Open Arduino IDE. Go to “Sketch” > “Include Library” > “Add .ZIP Library…”. Find and select the .zip file of the library which can be downloaded from GitHub (on the green Code button → Download .zip). Click “Open” or “OK”. Arduino IDE will install the library and it will be available for use.

There’s a fairly simple example (under examples/sweep) that should be exactly what you need and work OK.

Razumijem. Dasduino ConnectPLUS je ESP32 mikroprocesor, pa je potrebno koristiti library za njega.

Prvo moraš (ako već nisi) instalirati Dasduino ConnectPlus pločicu u Arduino. Evo tutorial kako to napraviti (step 2 na ovom linku): https://soldered.com/learn/add-inkplate-6-board-definition-to-arduino-ide/

Onda je potrebno instalirati drugi library za Servo. Evo jedan library koji sam pronašao za ovo: GitHub - jkb-git/ESP32Servo: Arduino-compatible servo library for the ESP32 · GitHub
Evo kako se instalira:

Otvori Arduino IDE. Idi na “Sketch” > “Include Library” > “Add .ZIP Library…”. Pronađi i odaberi .zip biblioteke koju se može skinuti s GitHub-a (na zelenoj tipki Code->Download .zip) Klikni na “Open” ili “OK”. Arduino IDE će instalirati biblioteku i ona će biti dostupna za korištenje.
Ima dosta jednostavan primjer (pod examples/sweep) koji bi mogao biti točno to što što ti treba i raditi OK.
