@DJ And Your Music

Hey DJ, I've been thinking about the music you used to write and produce. I really liked the stuff you created. I haven't found any lately. Have you worked on this area of your interests lately or is it a past passion? Any chance of posting a link to your music library that could be either listened to or bought? Sometimes I put background music...

Radar Skill Troubleshooting

Hi, I hope you are well.  I reached out to ask about the radar skill, given the limitations of my project I needed to use a ARDUINO LEONARDO as a EZ-B board and it connects directly to my computer's USB port.  I can control a servo perfectly, however the radar skill doesn't seem to do anything, are there any considerations that I haven't taken into...

Floating ADC Ports

I use a lot of ADC ports, mostly for monitoring switch position. I have been using the ports on EZB v4's and found out early I needed to use pull down resistors on the cables between the EZB and the switch. The signal going to ARC would jump around a lot and make it impossible to set a high and low value that would tell ARC if the switch was open...
