Hey guys!

I bought recently EasyVR 3.0 shield, and I'm having problems to use.
I made a simple project, just to test the shield with Arduino Uno, turning on or off two leds.
Before compile the code, I change the jumper to SW, and he led of shield turn off (It's normal?).

But I'm getting the messages in my Serial Monitor:
Bridge not started!
EasyVR not detected!
EasyVR not detected!
EasyVR not detected!
EasyVR not detected!
Can someone help me, please?

Code:
Code: Select all
#include "Arduino.h"
#if !defined(SERIAL_PORT_MONITOR)
  #error "Arduino version not supported. Please update your IDE to the latest version."
#endif

#if defined(SERIAL_PORT_USBVIRTUAL)
  // Shield Jumper on HW (for Leonardo and Due)
  #define port SERIAL_PORT_HARDWARE
  #define pcSerial SERIAL_PORT_USBVIRTUAL
#else
  // Shield Jumper on SW (using pins 12/13 or 8/9 as RX/TX)
  #include "SoftwareSerial.h"
  SoftwareSerial port(12, 13);
  #define pcSerial SERIAL_PORT_MONITOR
#endif

#include "EasyVR.h"

EasyVR easyvr(port);
