  RE: encoder and motor questions
 
I am doing something very similar, but instead I am trying to follow a black line on a white background. Either way, I am using IR detectors and emitters. They are readily available and work very well. I'm sorry I have never used an encoder to know (...) (26 years ago, 23-Dec-98, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

  RE: expansion board - servo control
 
I also saw a similar problem while experimenting with an Atmel microcontroller and a Futuba servo. My problem ended up being that I had forgotten to have a common ground between the controller and the servo. Once I connected the grounds everything (...)

  Re: dc motor output control
 
How about lifting pint 8 of the L293 chip and running a wire from it to a 7805 regulator (not the one used for logic). You could also run the wire to a separate battery pack. 4 NiCds in series gets you real close to 5V with no regulator. In motor (...) (26 years ago, 22-Dec-98, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Re: dc motor output control
 
On my first robot, I just took a resistor in-line and used that. It got very hot, though, and didn't work evenly (some of them must have started to burn out before the others did....) (26 years ago, 22-Dec-98, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

Just put the code inside a main() function block like this: void main(void) { YOUR CODE } Be sure and include the start button logic at the start of your code. The handyboard with start and automaticly (...) (26 years ago, 21-Dec-98, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
