The Intro Mode firmware is loaded onto the Haptic Controller prior to shipping. After successfully completing the installation process and providing power, the kit will automatically start and the Precision Microdrives logo will appear on the OLED main screen. Intro Mode serves as an introduction to haptic feedback and vibration alerting. This makes it perfect for those who are unfamiliar with haptics, or for demonstrating to colleagues the value of the features.
Engineering Mode The Engineering Mode uses different firmware that needs to be loaded into the Arduino, to perform this you will need to have installed the Arduino Environment (see Section 3) and have downloaded the code from precisionmicrodrives.com/haptic-kit. It gives access to a greater range of effects and functionality.
You will find on our website different tutorials and examples to follow with the Development Mode. Here is a few options for the users to continue investigating and developing new haptics applications. 1: How to connect an external motor to the Haptic Feedback Evaluation Kit precisionmicrodrives.com/content/connecting-external-actuator-vibration-motor-to-the- m20-200-haptics-kit/ 2: Driving multiple LRA's precisionmicrodrives.com/content/new-haptic-feedback-evaluation-kit-tutorial-driving-...

DRV2605 Library The DRV2605 and DRV2605L from Texas Instruments are functionally similar, the DRV2605L is available in a 10VSSOP package and is used in the Haptic Feedback Evaluation Kit. However, you should be able to use the library with either chip. If you have any issues in Development Mode, please contact us.
