SU 1.5 and ARDUINO driver

SU 1.5 and ARDUINO driver

You can write programs in ARDUINO for the SU 1.5 driver. However, the controller programming process itself takes place in the ARDUINO programming platform through, for example, the USBasp programmer and the ISP connector in the controller. Below are instructions for attaching Cores files for the ATmega 1284P processor and selecting the USBasp programmer in the Arduino platform.

Instructions for installing cores files for SU 1.5 driver:

  • you need to download and unpack the file mighty-1284p-1.6.3.rar (550kB);
  • the unpacked file should be placed in the \Arduino\hardware folder, where the program is installed;
  • we reset the Arduino IDE;
  • open a new project, then in the Tools menu select the appropriate board, i.e.: „maniacbug” Mighty 1284p 16mHz using Optiboot”;
  • then select the type of programmer – also in the Tools tab, select „USBasp”.

Currently, the Arduino IDE and controller are ready to write programs and program the SU 1.5 controller. To properly map the inputs/outputs, use the pinout of the ATmega1284P microcontroller below. Further programming is analogous to a regular ARDUINO board.
