Motorshield V2.0 not working with Olimexino (Arduino Leonard

Post by rserpell »

Hi,
Newbie question here: I was trying to run a sketch using the motor shield (v2) with a Leonardo clone but the board seems to crash at the AFMS.begin(); statement.
I'm not using any other shield and besides the calls to AFMS functions the sketch only does digital write to the pins where Leonardo has leds (7 and 9) and some serial prints.

I tried the same sketch and motor shield but with an Arduino Uno and it worked falwlesly (changed the digital write to pin 13 of course, kept serial printing too).

Does anyone have a clue on what might be going wrong?
Is the motorshield incompatible with the Olimexino?

There are several models of the olimexino. Are you are talking about the 32U4 version? https://www.olimex.com/Products/Duino/A ... e-hardware

We have not tested with any of the Olimexino boards, but it does work on all of the R3 and later Arduinos - including the Leonardo.

Yes that is the board I'm talking about.
Well, If you ever find a solution please let me know.
In the meantime the MS v2.0 does work perfectly with the Uno I have, so I can keep playing with that.

All the best,
Ricardo.
