Hi all!

i cant my PIR with a 433Mhz transmitter code to work. Can anybody tell me whats wrong? "Verification says "vw_setup was not declared in this scope"

Heres the code:

int pirPin = 2;
int statePir = 0;

void setup() {
Serial.begin(9600);

vw_setup(2000);

vw_set_tx_pin(3);

pinMode(pirPin,INPUT);
// put your setup code here, to run once:

}

void loop() {
statePir = digitalRead(pirPin);

if (statePir == HIGH){

const char *msg = "A";

vw_send((uint8_t *)msg, strlen(msg));

vw_wait_tx();
// put your main code here, to run repeatedly:

}

if (statePir == LOW){

const char *msg = "a";

vw_send((uint8_t *)msg, strlen(msg));

vw_wait_tx();

}

}

You're missing a #include for VirtualWire

Ok i fix it, but now it says "Error compiling for board Arduino uno". What does that mean?

It means you didn't post the whole error message.

Are you programming a Teensy or an Arduino Uno?

If it's a Teensy - you might to better on the Teensy support forum. But why can't you push the button on the Teensy? That may be necessary to resolve it.

That is always the last line when there is a compilation error. Scroll up to see what the actual error that it encountered is.
