MiniPOV4_ImageConverter code error

Post by Otb213 »

Hello recently purchased the MiniPOV4 and have enjoyed putting this kit together. Everything is working as it should and I have received the initial flashing light design that comes standard with the component. I am now trying to modify the display and I am getting code errors when I try and run the MiniPOV4_ImageConverter in the Processing IDE as instructed in the learn section of the kit's webpage. I am not particularly good at coding and really need some help with this issue.

Which version of Processing are you using?
Most likely you will need to use one of the older versions, v2.2.1. There are some compatibility issues with the newer version 3.0.2.

Thank you for the assistance with the proper version of the processing program. Now I am having trouble with my device being recognized by my laptop. I am running Windows 10 and I can't find the proper drivers for my controller to be recognized as USBtiny so I can try and upload the test design imagines to my minipov

You can try these drivers, https://learn.adafruit.com/adafruit-ard ... dows-setup. It should contain the USBtiny drivers.
