ARC And Go Pro

Hi, I noticed that the "No DLL's found in the waterfall procedure" has come back in the later versions if Go Pro is installed. Has this bug been reintroduced? I know that I can fix this issue by deleting files but I thought this had been fixed in the ARC software itself. Could somebody advise? Thank you and Happy Hoildays! Akhila

Question is - how do I interface the stepper motor with the EZB? I have Kollmoren P22 stepper motor - 8 wires, capable of bipolar, unipolar and parallel operation. I guess I need a recommended drive...

Connecting Leds To The Ez-B V4

Hi, I am just taking my first steps with my ez-b v4. I would like to connect some LEDs to the ez-b v4. Maybe some colorful ones that light permanently and an LED that can switch colors? (RGB-LED?) Which LEDs would be good for this little project? I already have a package with LEDs and resistors, but I am not sure if I can use them for this:...
