Hi,
I have downloaded Arduino and sent the sample code to the Rover V2. I am now struggling to control the robot from my Mac via a usb cable. I’ve tried running it using terminal by following some suggestions on the forum, but i’ve had no luck.
Can someone tell me exactly how to control it using wasd using terminal?
Thanks
Hey,
I’m not familiar with your particular setup, but controlling the Arduino via USB is generally done using the Arduino IDE; have you downloaded that?
Nick.
Hi Nick,
Yes, I’ve done that and uploaded the code to the robot. In the tuitorial it suggests operating the robot using hyperterminal, however that doesn’t run on a mac, so I need to figure out how to operate it with the WASD commands on the mac keyboard.
Regards,
Matt
Instead of Hyperterminal, you can use the Arduino serial window. Note that you need to select the right COM port and baud rate in order to connect to the board, and then press “enter” after each command.
Perfect, i’ve got it working. Thanks!
Great Matt!
Shoot a video when you get a chance! 
Nick.
