TA.NetMF.MotorControl seems not to work with more than one Adafruit 2.3 shield

[steffalk]

Hello everybody,

first, I'd like to thank you for that really fine library!

Second, I could not get the library to work when I stack two Adafruit 2.3 motor shields (the second one properly configured on another address) onto my Netduiono 3 board. As soon as I instanciate the second TA.NetMF.ShieldDriver.AdafruitV2MotorShield (giving the correct address), I get an InvalidOperationException.

Each of the boards, the one on the default address 96 and the one configured for address 97, work just fine if I use only one of them.

I am relatively new to micro controller boards, but as far as I digged through the TA source code, it seems to me that each instance tries to reserve an I/O pin, and thus, the second instantiation throws the InvalidOperationException, because the pin has already been reserved by the first object.

Of course, I may just as well have made an error on my own. If so, how do I have to instantiate the TA.NetMF.ShieldDriver.AdafruitV2MotorShield objects to use several motor shields at once?

Thanks again, and best regards,
Stefan Falk

Hello everybody,

are the issues monitored by anyone? Or should I post somewhere else?
