  Problems getting a L298H based motor controller to work...
 
Hi, On Friday I received a L298H based motor controller kit from JCM Electronics. The assembly was fairly painless, however I can't seem to get it to work. I get 5 volts out of the logic battery output, so the regulator is working. I double checked (...) (26 years ago, 14-Dec-98, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

  Miniboard in space.
 
Hi, I realize that this is actually not a miniboard list, but since the miniboard is actually the handyboards little brother, I figured maybe this would be of interest.

  LCD configs (was:Suppliers and rf link)
 
(...) I just wanted to voice a warning of sorts. I ordered the 2 X 16 LCD from them and the pinout is slightly different. Instead of a single line of 14 pins: x x x x x x x x x x x x x x They come with a dual inline 2x7 pin configuration: x x x x x (...) (26 years ago, 12-Dec-98, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

  Re: Suppliers and rf link
 
Cesar, Nuts & Volts magazine caries lots of adds for just the sort of thing you need (www.nutsvolts.com). I wanted to mention here the 2 X 16 and 2 X 20 LCD displays which are on sale for $8.00 each at www.flat-panel.com. Hope this helps Pherd (26 years ago, 12-Dec-98, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

  Re: How to get digital outputs from the handyboard???...???
 
(...) First, to enable the four SPI pins D2 through D5 as digital outputs, make sure you do a bit_set( 0x1009, 0x3C ). (In the sonar.c program, for example, bit_set( 0x1009, 0x30 ) seems to only enable two of the pins--not all four). I think poke (...) (26 years ago, 11-Dec-98, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
