Hey, I'm trying to use the PS2X library to interface a ps2 controller with my Arduino to control some motors. However, I'm using a motor shield due to the power the motors need. As most of the digital pins are being used and i wanted to know if it is possible to use the analog pins on the Arduino …

[image] vxaoce: motor shield which one? [image] vxaoce: small snippet of example code: full code pls

Welcome! If you want to use one or more of the analog pins as outputs, no problem but you must physically connect them to the load and define them in setup. It appears from the missing annotated schematic you forgot that. With all them traces on the motor shield something might be connected to the c…

Just made an edit then hopefully provides more information

Just made an edit then hopefully provides more information. What do you mean by define the pins?

Without the needed information I cannot properly answer your question. Post your code per forum guidelines be sure to use code tags, the links, and an annotated schematic. Please remember we cannot see your project and can only take a guess which is probably wrong.

ive provided some more information regarding what pins are used for what on the motor shield and added the complete code for the project to provide more context. How would you suggest me to add a schematic? Use tinkercad and then screenshot it and add it?

you must know how PS gamepad to be connected. you got this info somewhere and able to provide this link to us. or describe by yourself. and photo of how do you realized it. then if the sketch is not faulty then something else.

I am not familiar with tinkercad but it will probably work.

Yep so, i have wired directly from the ps2 receiver to the arduino's analog pins. Using this image as my reference to what wires are responsible for each piece of functionality. [image] Specifically, i wired the clock to A5, command to A1, attention to A3, data to A0, the ground to gnd and the po…

[receiver to arduino] couldn't find any graphical representations of the motor shield but thats the pinout for the receiver going to arduino, just note that im not using any of the digital pins regardless.
