The Make Controller Kit

You've received your Make Controller Kit, and perhaps wondering how to actually do anything with it. Fortunately, there are just a few steps to get up and running:
  • Download the mchelper application from the Downloads page
  • Connect the Make Controller Kit to your computer via USB
  • Give it a quick test to confirm that it worked

 

As you're getting started, some resources that will help you out are:
Glossary - definitions of many commonly used terms in electronics and software.
Forum - discussion & troubleshooting. This is where a lot of the latest info is announced.
Documentation section - a variety of helpful information.
We also have an IRC channel, #makingthings, on irc.freenode.net for live chat. Come by and say hello!
