Accessing The Analog Values On An Arduino

Is it possible to access analog values on an Arduino using the existing ARC software? I've tried, but it seems that the only ADC (Analog-to-Digital Converter) skills available are tied to the EZ-Robot EZ-B v4 and EZ-Robot EZ-B Tiny controllers. I have several Arduinos that I'm already using with the Stepper servo skill, and they have extra pins available for analog inputs and outputs. However, I do not know how to access these analog values through ARC. If this functionality is not currently available, could you please consider adding it to the list for future skill development?

The stepper firmware is not an ezb. The stepper protocol does not support anything like reading ADC. So no, you wouldn't get an Arduino's adc value from a stepper motor firmware. You couldn't add it either because the protocol doesn't allow it. An Arduino would need an EZB firmware installed to operate EZB commands, not a stepper firmware.

Understood, had a feeling that might be the case. I'll just use the EZB-4.
