Arduino IDE Problem

Recoil12

I've just started this project this week: http://www.paintballsentrygun.com/

Following the instructions, (here:http://www.paintballsentrygun.com/make-your-own/setup-the-psg-code), I found myself in the Arduino IDE,running the provided code(https://github.com/sentryGun53/Project-Sentry-Gun/blob/master/Arduino/PSG_Arduino_Code/PSG_Arduino_Code.ino)
I get the error in the included picture when I attempt to verify or upload the code.

I'm using Arduino IDE 1.0.5 to run the code to an Arduino UNO.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

The code is calling two functions that have not been declared, backup() and restore() within the arduino code. Is the code missing a #include or something?

Chet T16

Oh I see it now, you need to add the Backup.ino file to your sketch too

Thanks Chet, how might I do that then? Is it simply copy/paste or is there more to be done?

Check out the bit on using multiple files here http://arduino.cc/en/Hacking/BuildProcess

I haven't access to the ide to double check but once you have both ino files in tabs in the one window it should compile

I got as far as including the 3 required files in the one arduino sketch using tabs.I'm still getting errors compiling(although different than before) which I will post as soon as possible.Is there any chance you could run it in the arduino IDE and see what you get?

Thanks again.

I just checked and it compiles for me on 1.0.2 (shouldn't make a difference with 1.0.5)

I have the PSG_Arduino_Code folder in my normal sketch folder, the 3 files are in this folder - when you open PSG_Arduino_Code.ino it will load the other two into tabs automatically

Recoil12

Here's how I am doing it(please tell me where I'm going wrong).
1.Opening PSG_Arduino_Code directly from Winrar folder.
2.Add tab>backup(1)>open backup in seperate window(2) and copy paste into tab(1)
3.Add tab>EEPROMAnything>go to here to copy code(http://www.instructables.com/id/Nerf-Vulcan-Sentry-Gun/?ALLSTEPS)>paste into EEPROMAnything tab
4.Compile

Results in error(included image).

This is the folder in my sketch folder (i.e. the one listed as sketchbook location under File > Preferences)



Double clicking PSG_Arduino_Code.ino opens all 3 files

Thanks a million Chet that did it .
