EKG sheild error question #5

Closed biovet closed 9 years ago

biovet commented 9 years ago

I am new to arduino and have been attempting to use the EKG shield and have uploaded the sketch you have her but keep getting error messages when I attempt to verify. 'serailEvent" declared void What am I missing?

It seems they are two different sketches for different systems You definitely want to use this for the Arduino Uno

z3t0 commented 9 years ago

The reason for getting those errors are because that file is not for Arduino (atleast not directly)

z3t0 commented 9 years ago

Also note that an arduino can hold no MORE than one sketch at a time so at no point in time should you ever need to use two sketches for any purpose because it simply doesnt work like that

Please read the hookup guide here: https://learn.sparkfun.com/tutorials/ad8232-heart-rate-monitor-hookup-guide#uploading-the-sketch-and-connecting-with-processing.

This explains why there are two different sketches. The .pde file is actually for Processing, not Arduino (though the old Arduino IDE did use the same file extension).
