Can't compile motor example in Arduino IDE

Here are the first two lines of errors.

E:\docs\Arduino\libraries\OrangutanLEDs\OrangutanLEDs.cpp: In static member function ‘static void OrangutanLEDs::left(unsigned char)’:

E:\docs\Arduino\libraries\OrangutanLEDs\OrangutanLEDs.cpp:69: error: ‘PD1’ was not declared in this scope

Hello.

The issue you’re having has to do with the Arduino Libraries being out of date. You can update the library code to work with the newer ATmega328s on the 3pi as described in this post:

Error compiling line following code for 3pi

Hello. The Arduino version of the Pololu library hasn't been updated in a while. There are pin macros like PD1 defined for the ATmega168, which the 3pi was originally based on, but the newer ATmega328 (which is presumably on your 3pi) instead uses defines like PORTD1. Can you try editing the library code to replace PD3 with PORTD3, PD5 with PORTD5, PD6 with PORTD6, and PB3 with PORTB3? You will have to make similar changes to get other parts of the library to compile, too. - Ben

However, I strongly recommend using AVR Studio and our newer Pololu AVR libraries. With some of the newer functionality added to our library (e.g. serial and digital I/O), there really isn’t anything to be gained from the Arduino IDE anymore.

That link put me on the right track, thanks.

I’m using Arduinos along with the Orangutan so using AVRStudio would mean using two different environments. Probably more than my ancient brain wants to deal with.
