  The other issue I have when downloading from profile designer, I can't program the channels, but I can test? Another issue is when I open the controller(profile image) on my phone it says that to "complete creation"(?) I downloaded a public profile too.
  I have 5 other sbricks and I have never had any problems before, could my new one be faulty?  less

I want to have a slider for steering but for it to have a RANGE. I am using a smart motor with rotation sensor so it should be possible to have the steering slider stop working if it senses its out of range? However it seems to only evaluate the IF function when the slider is first moved, not continually. Does that make sense? Image attached. Thanks!

    Lénárd Pásztor You can connect it as a "smart" motor then you can use the calibration block for that.

  Dominik Vollmer said:
  Dear Lénárd,
  we want to connect Mindstorms EV3 to SBrickPro.On our iPad, the EV3 brick is not detected. We assume it is not supported on Apple?
  This is why we installed the SBrickPro App on our Windows10 computer with supports bluetooth 4.1 (we do not have a BLED112 V1 dongle).
  Unfortunately, the SBrickPro app does NOT recognize the EV3 brick under Windows10.
  And the following URL does not work: https://download.sbrick.com/windriver/ 
   
  Is there a way to connect the EV3 with SBrickProWindows without a BLED112 V1 dongle in our case? Or do we have to buy such a dongle?
   
  Thank you,
  Dominik & Jannis (SBrickPro testers)

  You can implement the functionality in SBrick Pro. Since the wedo sensor is not as accurate as mindstorms devices it may not so precise, but I think it is worth to give it a try. Please get back to us with the results :)

  We created an update for train fans. Our users usually configure multiple trains in one profile. The problem started when not all trains powered on and the profile not started. Now you can stop the discovery and run the profile if you want even if not all device connected. We hope this solves the problem. Any comments are welcome.

  You can download the latest sbrick pro releases from here:

  Now the SBrick Pro app include the drivers, so no external driver package needed.

  You can't buy SBrick Pro, while it is on public beta testing. If you want to test it please drop a mail to info@sbrick.com
  If you want to buy 3rd party drivers for the SBrick app you can buy in the news screen or you can configure a 3rd party hub in your profile then the app give you a popup window when you start the profile.
  Please let me know if it solved the problem or not. Thanks!  less

  Hi Guys
  Newbie here.  I have a total of 10 lego trains controlled by SBrick(s) and have built a single app to control them all.
  However, if they are not all switched on, the App does not work.  How do I get around this?
   
  Any help would be much appreciated.

  I am testing 2 Sbricks before I commit to 28 more. Please advise.
  I have a massive Lego Train Layout (outdoors) and have 27 powered engines in total.
  I am playing with the SBrick Pro App (Beta) because it will run when not all Sbricks are available (some trains won't be powered on all the time). The current app on the Google App store does not allow this....all Sbricks must be connected for the app to run.
  
  Using the Pro App:
  I have added in 2 simple start buttons, and used the coding to do this:
  1. Added a 'Virtual Hub' to link up Sblock (on left, and set it to a motor on Port D)
  2. Added a 'Virtual Hub' to link up Sblock (on right, and set it to a motor on Port D)
  However, the Pro App sees both Sblocks as "Sblock 12" Although I have changed their name to different names (Sblock-1 and Sblock-2) But, what happens is, both buttons then revert to the last Sblock I programmed (Sblock-2) so I am unable to get a button to control the Sblock-1, and the other button Sblock-2

  Do you mean if the buwizz brick is powered on you can't connect to an SBrick?

  What type of compatibility you miss?
  3. "Where is the function to control the voltage (speed modes) that the BuWizz battery supports?"
