  • Page 10: Install The Library Files

    2.2. Install the library files Enter https://www.adeept.com/learn/ on browser, and download the code, library files and driver file.
  • Page 11 Copy the four library files Adafruit_NeoPixel, Servo,IRremote and SR04 to the libraries file in the installation directory of Arduino IDE.

  • Page 14: Install The Driver

    2.3.Install the driver 1.Connect the control board and open Arduino, you will see the serial port is not accessible, meaning that you have not installed the serial port driver. 2.Open the driver program, install corresponding driver according to the computer operating system.
  • Page 15 3. Click to install.

  • Page 16: Upload Program

    4.Now you will find the Arduino serial port is accessible (different computer configuration has different serial port). 2.4. Upload program. 1.Turn on the power and switch program upload to 0.
  • Page 17 2.Open Arduino software and select the control board. 3.Select serial port(different computer configuration has different serial port)
  • Page 18 5.Upload program. Two sets of code are provided, the infrared remote control (four_feet_robot_wifi) and wifi control (four_feet_robot_infrared). Upload the code according to your need. Because the servo has a certain angle error, when you finish installing the servo, you may find that the four legs of the robot cannot stand on the same level,and you need to fine-tune the angle through the program.
  • Page 19 6.After uploading, turn off the power and switch to 1, and then turn it on. Run the program: LED is yellow when turned on.
  • Page 20 After the Wi-Fi and attitude sensor are debugged (about 30 second), LED changes to blue. Now you can start to control the robot. (Note: After turning on the power, lay flat the robot when the LED does not turn to blue yet. Do not move the robot during the process because the attitude sensor is calibrating and reading the data.)
