 | | speed control encapsulation

(...) This is the reason I remember for encapsulating the value. It wouldn't be hard to implement new speed control for the 6811 either which could do better than 9 divisions. One option is to leave the encapuslated interface, but make more (...) (29 years ago, 18-Mar-96, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

(...) Well that would do it---it would discharge your battery. You actually should be getting more like 9.6 to 10v from a fully charged battery. Why don't you get an adatper that works and charge your battery until it's slightly warm and then see if (...) (29 years ago, 18-Mar-96, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

Well if you believe in encapsulation it should be 0 to 100.0 %, then the implementation of the motor speed control could give its best effort in that regard. One of the things I hope to do on my Handyboard is set it up to run two of my PIC motor (...) (29 years ago, 18-Mar-96, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

Actually, when I first tried the new motors, I was able to use them for a while. It wasn't until I went to download a different program that it started happening. That's what's confusing me. Is it possible that the L293D is burned or something like (...) (29 years ago, 18-Mar-96, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

Dear Luc, Thank you for your feedback regarding the Expansion Board. (Other users out there---what's going on?) To answer some of your questions: (...) you can try requesting a sample from maxim directly. They even let you do it from their web site: (...)

| | Motor speed question (premature)
|
|
Hi, Sorry for my earlier question about the motor speed table. It was a bit premature. After boning up on PWM I found that the values selected represented the "fine" (i.e. less jerky) settings. There can be as many as 16 different steps that can be (...) (29 years ago, 18-Mar-96, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

Is it possible that your battery is simply discharged? Does the board exhibit the problem when you try driving the previous motors that did not give you a problem? Regarding the charge light on the serial board, are you sure that the charge rate (...) (29 years ago, 18-Mar-96, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

Hi. My board was working fine until I hooked up some different motors to it today. It seems that whenever I try to drive the motors the low battery light lights up and the board gets reset. I checked the battery and it reads 8.4V before and while (...) (29 years ago, 18-Mar-96, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

Hi Jeff, Thanks for your help. To our knowledge, no one has successfully run IC 3.1b1 under Windows 3.1 with using the win32s extension. We will look into what it will take to make future releases win32s-compatible, but for now, we apologize that (...) (29 years ago, 18-Mar-96, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

(...) Sure, why not? The way the motor speed table works is that the number is bit shifted out to the motor. Each bit gets the same ammount of time. So if you don't want your motor to move, then you bit shift all zeros. If you want it to run at a (...) (29 years ago, 17-Mar-96, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
