Hello everyone!
It’s been a couple months since my BRAT has been assembled, and I just finally reassembled it. Now I seem to be facing a problem…
My GP2D12 sensor isn’t–or at least hasn’t been working at all since I got it. I tried using EVERY single Manual, Program, everything on the lynxmotion site and I can’t seem to get it to work with my Basic Atom 28.
I’m pretty sure I’m wiring it correctly, and yes, its plugged in to the Bot Board. And there’s nothing wrong with my Bot Board/Basic Atom because I have tested all other programs and they seem to work.
At this point, I don’t know what to do. Should i get a new one? or should I keep troubleshooting?
It turns out my sensor does work. I’ve been trying to get it to work all day now and now it starts working…
Anyway, if anyone else has any problems, use the code I made to test it:
