Is this kit compatible with the SainSmart Duemilanove (It is an Arduino Board with ATmega328 microcontroller). Or would I need anything extra to make it work?
Hi, from the layout of the SainSmart Duemilanove we can see that all the pins are same as what it has on Arduino Duemilanove. So it is compatible.
Hello, could you please verify which version of the base shield comes with this kit (v1.2 or v1.3), especially since you no longer individually sell the v1.2 base shield?
Now the version of base shield is v1.2.Although v1.2 has shut down,but we have some in store.We would sell the new one after the older one sold out.
Hi, does this kit come with V1.2 or V1.3 Base Shield?
Hi,may it brings a V1.2 Base Shield with it.
Hi there, I am wondering are the cables that come with this starter kit compatible with the ports on the LiPo rider? Search your site as much as I can, I can't tell if the JST 3 cables mentioned on LiPo Rider are compatible with Groove. Thanks!
Dear Russell.You'd better use Grove universal 4pin cable,because they'll all be used most of the time,and sometimes only 3 pins are needed, and jst 3 cables will be enough.
My first question is about choosing Seeeduino V3.0 (Atmega 328P) or Seeeduino Mega with this starter kit.
I will be a newbie with seeduino, but I will need to access seeduino via Web (using your Wifi Shield) to get and set values to sensors and LEDs via HTTP (may I use REST or similar?).
Another question is: May I use all the green and blue modules available at http://www.seeedstudio.com/wik... (I am not sure about the color meaning).
Thanks in advance.
Thank you for your response. I will need to access seeduino via Web (using Wifi Shield) to get and set values to sensors and LEDs via HTTP (may I use REST or similar as I do with my Flyport? Wiki information is not enough for me at this point: http://www.seeedstudio.com/wik...
Thanks in advance!
I wonder if the grove above card is compatible with new Arduino UNO because it has two GND, 5v between pin and the VIN.
Thanked.
It's compatible.
Because there are several postings that the cables are missing I am confused. Is the position Groove cable X10 one, two or how many cables? Or do I really need to order them seperately?
10 cables are included.
The kit is great, well presented in a nice bx and working like a charm, the only issue is that the pins of the shield are not long enough to place it on top of an Ethernet shield (due to the height of the EDthernet connector). This is a serious drawback.
The image should highlight the "Starter Bundle Harness" and note that it is not included in the Kit. My Grove kit arrived today and I was was disappointed to learn this is a separate item.
Got the kit, amazing toy :-)
Only negative thing: no harness... ;-( How can i order one?
finally my shipment arrived (it was ordered on 21/02) everything was in order. Every piece looks really tiny but cute ^_^ hope to put it all to work really soon so i can give better feedback. Thanks seeedstudio!
My LCD arrived today. The kit is complete and fully functional.
Fernando Galindo Garcia solved the whole puzzle;
"Inside the sketch i initialize the library:
//rs,rw,enable,d4,d5,d6,d7
LiquidCrystal lcd(13,12,3,4,5,6,7);
As other people point, the wiring shown on the product page is WRONG!
Date Added: 06/05/2010 by Fernando Galindo Garcia"
simply disassmble rs,rw, enable pins from socket and connect them to;
rs =_ pin13
rw =_ pin12
en =_ pin3
others same, connect them with the included cables
Anyone able to work LCD with this shield ? I can not...
UPDATE: My LCD finally arrived. Now the kit is complete.
UPDATE:
I received the package without the cables and lcd on 11/25/2010 and 46 days have passed since and i still didn't received them.
I'm disappointed SeedStudio!!!!!!!
My bundle arrived on december 27th, almost complete, but without the LCD display. It's been 8 days, but I expect the LCD will come soon.
The cables finally arrived after a while, but the LCD is still missing
In the 3rd and final installment of my exciting series of comments on this product :-), the LCD just arrived in the mail. So, to answer the question I asked in my first comment: yes, the Kit does include all components listed in the description. If your kit arrived without cables or LCD, they should arrive in a separate package.
I also didn't received the LCD and Cables.
Mine also arrived - with cables, but no LCD. The datasheet arrived on the website just in time :-) It still needs more details about the twig designs (like which connectors go to which devices on each twig), and if I want to use non-Grove sensors that run at 3.3 volts I'll have to use breadboard or protoboard, but it's a really nice starter system.
Further to my earlier question about the cables, a box in the mail yesterday answered it. Yes, cables are included in the bundle. Looks like the cables are shipped separately sometimes (maybe just for pre-orders).
The same happened to me. My bundle arrived without this LCD and without cables. And the cables that came previously with my electronic brick shield aren't compatible with this model
I received a couple of the Grove bundles in the mail this week, but without:
- any cables
- the LCD and the board on which the LCD is mounted
I'm happy with the bundle - at this low price, I didn't really expect an LCD. However, the cables are rather important.
Are the cables supposed to be included with the bundle, or are they something we should order separately?
Dan.
