Using the Raspberry Pi with the Pro Driver

Hi,

I want to use the Raspberry Pi 3 B+ to run the ProDriver from Sparkfun. I’m having trouble finding a library to use with the ProDriver for python 3 on the Raspberry Pi. I’m trying to get RpiMotorLib to work with it but I’m not sure which settings I should use or specifically how to wire it together with that library. If someone could help me figure this out that would be fantastic.

We don’t have a pre-built python library, but you could make one using the functions found near the end of the hookup guide https://learn.sparkfun.com/tutorials/sp … ng-further

Alternatively, the Pi can easily run Arduino code as well and you might be able to save yourself some trouble by just running them instead - you would need to change quite a bit of RpiMotorLib to get it to work (that library is meant to directly control steppers, which negates the purpose of the pro driver)

Ah, gotcha. I will take a look into both of those methods and tell you which ones worked for me. Thank you!
