    Hello,

    I’m new to Al of this but I install everything on my arduino r3 for Smc3 version v1.0. And install the 2 ibt2 motor drivers to my arduino. I have set the mode to mode2. I have wire everything just like in the pic to my arduino and motor drivers. When I start scm3 the motor ar not moving at all when I turn the potmeter I only see the green line moving. What can it be do I need to change more in the code ?

    can it be that I’m only connected pin 4 to the arduino and not 3 and 4 as in the pic. That the motor is not working ?

    Are the pots connected to the motors, as the pots provide positional feedback?

    Have you tested the output of the IBT2s with a multimeter?
