Hi all,
I succeeded in connecting my DGT Smartboard to chess.com.
Unfortunately, sometimes moves do not get well to chess.com
- castling often only moves the King
- a piece is dropped on the wrong field
Do you encounter similar errors?
Thanks
Same happens to me. I castle and the move registers as e.g. Kf1
You need to have the plug on your left. It happened to me and it was because the pieces were on the wrong side.
That depends on setting withing the DGT driver. Mine can be setup either way around, but it does not have the indices printed on it.
The times that the wrong move has been transmitted is when I have slid a piece multiple squares, and it only detects the move to the first square. For example, sliding a pawn forwards two has once been picked up as a single square.
For castling it is much safer to move the king first and then later move the rook.
