Re: Code - Barrier detect
I'm pretty sure why your random selection isn't working. Here's your code: if (rndm = 0){ motors(-60,60); playStartChirp(); } if (rndm = 1){ motors(60,-60); } I haven't tested the outcome, but I made sure it compiled. But remember that in C, the "=" is an assignment operator, not a compari...

Re: Wink Issue.

Re: Problem with my Wink
Caveat - I'm new to Arduino, but I've been playing with Wink for the last couple of days. I believe your issue is that you are trying to run Ringo preloaded demo on the Wink. I believe there is a small confusion being caused because Wink is new and the current usage instructions refer alot to common...

Now that I'm up and coding for Wink, I have a very basic question. Each of the programming exercises introduces new functions. I'm looking for a more complete reference manual of all available functions and operations.
Where can I find the Language Reference Manual for Wink (or Ringo)?
