Arduino code upload errors

[Anonymous]

Hi,

I have downloaded the Drawbot code and I am trying to upload the arduino code to the arduino Uno that I have. Unfortunately I am getting the following errors.

I did also install the Adafruit library for the Motor control shield “AFmotor. I can run the stepper test on the arduino and it works just fine.

Any thoughts as to what my problem might be?

Here is the errors I get in in the sketch

arduino:109: error: 'AF_Stepper' does not name a type

arduino:110: error: 'AF_Stepper' does not name a type

arduino:130: error: 'FORWARD' was not declared in this scope

arduino:131: error: 'BACKWARD' was not declared in this scope

arduino:777: error: 'FORWARD' was not declared in this scope

arduino:889: error: 'm1' was not declared in this scope

arduino:893: error: 'm2' was not declared in this scope

When I go to the includes and change “AFMotorDrawbot.h” to “AFMotor.h” I get another set of error. I think I may have missed something?

New errors

Thanks in advance!

It looks like you haven’t installed the AFMotorDrawbot library. Follow the same process as the AFMotor library and restart Arduino. Please let me know if that helps.

ah, yes! I didn’t realize I needed a different library from the Adafruit.

I followed these instructions “To install, click DOWNLOAD SOURCE in the top right corner, and see our tutorial at http://www.ladyada.net/library/arduino/libraries.html on Arduino Library installation” on the Motor shield page when I should have followed these instructions https://github.com/MarginallyClever/Makelangelo/wiki/Assembly > Software, on the Makelangelo marginally clever instructions page. I have it working now, thank you!
