    Hi,

    as from time to time people are struggling with SMC3 and can't get their motors moving, so I decided to write down my experience with SMC3 utils in a little tutorial. Hope it helps the ones with problems and avoids problems for the ones starting their rigs in the future. This tutorial is only valuable in addition to the tutorial of RufusDufus as it's just the part of connecting Arduino, motors and pots and the necassary setup in SMC3 utils, but a bit more detailed to cover some troubles people reported.

    BR
    Chris
