This Forum is Dedicated For all The Object Oriented PIC Lovers .......... The concept behind OOPic is straight forward. Use preprogrammed multitasking Objects from a library of highly optimized Objects to do all the work of interacting with the hardware. Then write small scripts in Basic, C, or Java syntax styles to control the Objects. During operation, the Objects run continuously and simultaneously in the background while the scripts run in the foreground telling the objects what to do.

Just for giggles, get a couple of 330 ohm resistors to put in series
with the pins. They shouldn't affect performance but they will
defend against crossed wiring. Once the system is known to be
correct, they can be removed.

I'm confident in the instructions because I just connected my own
Pololu adapter. I also tried the current limiting resistors and they
don't seem to cause a problem and they certainly help protect against
bad wiring.

Protect that OOPic...
