Hi,
This is my first post.
My name's is Eddy and I'm a teacher from Portugal. I'm helping a student with a project - persistence of vision - and i need help on Connecting a PS2 Keyboard to an Arduino. The ideia is to type the letters using a keyboard...
I'm trying to compile this exemple:
/* PS2Keyboard library example
PS2Keyboard now requries both pins specified for begin()
keyboard.begin(data_pin, irq_pin);
Valid irq pins:
Arduino: 2, 3
Arduino Mega: 2, 3, 18, 19, 20, 21
Teensy 1.0: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 16
Teensy 2.0: 5, 6, 7, 8
Teensy++ 1.0: 0, 1, 2, 3, 18, 19, 36, 37
Teensy++ 2.0: 0, 1, 2, 3, 18, 19, 36, 37
Sanguino: 2, 10, 11
for more information you can read the original wiki in arduino.cc
at http://www.arduino.cc/playground/Main/PS2Keyboard
or http://www.pjrc.com/teensy/td_libs_PS2Keyboard.html
Like the Original library and example this is under LGPL license.

#include <PS2Keyboard.h>
const int DataPin = 8;
const int IRQpin = 5;
PS2Keyboard keyboard;
void setup() {
delay(1000);
keyboard.begin(DataPin, IRQpin);
Serial.begin(9600);
Serial.println("Keyboard Test:");
}
void loop() {
if (keyboard.available()) {
// read the next key
char c = keyboard.read();
// check for some of the special keys
if (c == PS2_ENTER) {
Serial.println();
} else if (c == PS2_TAB) {
Serial.print("[Tab]");
} else if (c == PS2_ESC) {
Serial.print("[ESC]");
} else if (c == PS2_PAGEDOWN) {
Serial.print("[PgDn]");
} else if (c == PS2_PAGEUP) {
Serial.print("[PgUp]");
} else if (c == PS2_LEFTARROW) {
Serial.print("[Left]");
} else if (c == PS2_RIGHTARROW) {
Serial.print("[Right]");
} else if (c == PS2_UPARROW) {
Serial.print("[Up]");
} else if (c == PS2_DOWNARROW) {
Serial.print("[Down]");
} else if (c == PS2_DELETE) {
Serial.print("[Del]");
} else {
// otherwise, just print all normal characters
Serial.print(c);
}
}
}
and i kept gettin' this errors:
C:\Users\User\Documents\arduino-0022\arduino-0022\libraries\PS2Keyboard\PS2KeyboardExt.cpp:25: error: 'byte' does not name a type
C:\Users\User\Documents\arduino-0022\arduino-0022\libraries\PS2Keyboard\PS2KeyboardExt.cpp:34: error: 'PROGMEM' does not name a type
I've followed this "How To"
Thx a lot
