  CM: MotorCurrent
 
For the Cybermaster unit, it is possible to monitor the current of the external motor, measured in milliamps. I assume this can be used to detect when the motor is stalled. Do anybody know the typical values of MotorCurrent when the motors is o (...) (26 years ago, 10-Dec-98, to lugnet.robotics)
 
  Re: CM: MotorCurrent
 
I only made one test with it, and by the looking at the results I couldn't tell if the motor running loaded, but I may be wrong! The result of the function seems to be: .If no motor is attached, the result is zero. .If a motor is attached and not (...) (26 years ago, 10-Dec-98, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) Yes, this sounds plausible. My comment on stall detections was probably wrong. Fredrik (26 years ago, 10-Dec-98, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) And what would you say the current limit is? I believe Andy Bower used a limit of 95. Would that apply to your case as well? Fredrik (25 years ago, 3-Jan-99, to lugnet.robotics)

  Re: CM: MotorCurrent
 
(...) Great! Another point in favor of CyberMaster! :-) In my test I saw that the value looked like random, and in fact it is very unstable, but I didn't went any further to see if it had a pattern. I'm glad it has. Laurentino Martins *<||:-) (...) (25 years ago, 3-Jan-99, to lugnet.robotics)
