We are about to switch to a new forum software. Until then we have removed the registration on this forum.
I'm creating a radar simulation, and want to send data from Processing to an Arduino to control 4 small stepper motors to display range and bearing on 4 dials. Firmata seems like a good solution for this.
Would like to create a Class "MOTOR" and instantiate each of the motors in the main sketch. I've successfully created a number of simple classes before, but am unclear on how/where to place the special libraries that need to be imported for Firmata. Also not sure where this should be placed:
arduino = new Arduino(this, Arduino.list()[5], 115200);
The general question is: When creating a Class which uses specific libraries - where should the libraries be imported - in the 'main' sketch or in the class?

Inside PDE, it doesn't matter where
import
is located, since all classes are nested to 'main' sketch!
