(...) Now this is starting to make sense. We use -100 to +100, but it does seem silly to have a resolution of 201. Much more logical that the routine converts to steps of lesser resolution, and 7 speeds certainly seem reasonable. (28 years ago, 23-Feb-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

(...) Either I'm confused or we're talking two different animals. Our pcode_hb.s19 that came with the Gleason Handyboard, allows variable motor speeds from motor(0,-100) to motor(0,100) with great and fine control. In our first test we converted (...)

(...) You will have to rewrite the code in the interrupt functions. It isn't "hard" but it does require that you understand what IC is using the various timers for. The best documentation for that is the PCode itself. I don't believe you can use the (...) (28 years ago, 23-Feb-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

(...) ???? 7 speeds??? We use the IC that comes with the Gleason Associates Handyboard where motor(0,100) runs motor 0 full speed ahead motor(1,-33) runs motor 1 backwards at 1/3 speed where speeds vary from 1 to 100 in either direction. Can't you (...) (28 years ago, 23-Feb-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

I had considered doing -100 to 100 PWM in hardware. I even went so far as to draw up the schematics for it... Then I read the HC11 manual, and realized that instead of my "little" circuit, I could just use another HC11.. The internal timer/counters (...)

it's harder than you might expect, b/c the PWM routine is 'hard-wired" into the pcode file. basically, you have to make the changes in pcode.asm, and reassemble the pcode_hb.s19 file. -fred In your message you said: (...) (28 years ago, 23-Feb-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

I want to increase the resolution of the motor driver routines provided by Interactive C, so that there are more than 7 speeds. Using the method of generating PWM signals in the Mobile Robots Book, this seems easy. However looking at the primitive (...) (28 years ago, 23-Feb-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
