Errors compiling RFM12B Demo sketch?

[kramerica]

I need some assistance.

I have an Arduino Uno - and I purchased a RFM12B board from Modern Device.


I followed this guide:
http://jeelabs.net/projects/hardware/wiki/RFM12B_Board


I then downloaded the library.

https://github.com/jcw/jeelib

I download the "jeelib-master.zip"

I unzip it to my arduino library directory and name it: "JeeLib"

These instructions told me to name the directory:
http://jeelabs.net/pub/docs/jeelib/md_README.html

-Unpack the archive and rename the resulting folder to "JeeLib".
-Move it to the "libraries" folder in your Arduino sketches area.
-Restart the Arduino IDE to make sure it sees the new files.



I see the examples and I choose the Example:

RF12Demo and attempt to upload and I get dozens and dozens of errors:

etc.
etc.

The issue is definitely that Arduino is not seeing your library. Are you using a fairly recent version of Arduino?
The JeeLib library is just named "JeeLib" and is the the libraries folder (you might need to make this) inside of the Arduino folder, where you are saving your sketches?
You can confirm where you are saving your sketches by checking the path in the Arduino IDE->Arduino menu -> Preferences.

Write back here but you can also try calling the shop and I'll help you get going. It is confusing for beginners, but once you install a couple of libraries you'll figure out most of the path problems.
