Re: [oopic] Where to begin?

I recommend a book by Dennis Clark titled "Programming and Customizing
the OOPic Microcontroller". It explains a lot of the hidden quirks of
the OOPic that do not show up in the online documentation, otherwise the
online manual (www.oopic.com) is an excellent source as well. Those two
sources and this forum have been my main support, and then you need to
start doing some basic projects to get a feel for the programming and
interfacing techniques. Structure the test programs around what you will
actually want to implement on your robot.

cheers,
