Not responding to Bluetooth commands
by ChrilleSjostenI have not had any luck to get my HC-06 module to work with my Otto DIY+. I have hooked everything up like the guide says, configured the module to the recommended settings using the Arduino and then I used the OttoDIYAPP_122_baudrate9600.ino to program my Otto. I have also succesfully installed the included OttoDIYAPP.apk on my Android device. I can connect to the HC-06 module without a problem, and when I connect using the app the module stops blinking. But when I try to send commands to the Arduino nothing happends. I have done a succesfull loopback test on my HC-06 module and it seems to be working correctly. Can anyone help me?
Where to learn basic coding for Otto
by LCMRI am a high school librarian with a 3D printer - I am printing Otto, and I'll be purchasing a basic DIY kit tonight. I have ZERO knowledge of coding, but I'd like to learn a bit to make him move. I've watched some YouTube videos, but they don't seem applicable to what I would need to know. Can you refer me to somewhere that I can begin learning? Thanks. :)
