  for loop stack overflow
 
THis may be a dumb question on my part, but we are getting stack overflows on for loops such as for(int i = 0;i<1000;i++){...} when using values over 100 or so. Is this an 8bit counter thing or something else? Thanks, Owen Popplestone (25 years ago, 20-Oct-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Re: Handyboard low voltage motor control
 
Well, I went with separate h-bridge to maintain PWM and it turns out that even though the motors are geared down, they still don't have enough torque to haul around all the batteries. Looks like I'll stick with 9v motors... Thanks for the (...) (25 years ago, 20-Oct-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

  GLOBAL POSITIONING SYSTEM
 
I learned that somebody has successfully connected GARMIN GPS to HB. If I am not wrong , this GPS is not be able to receive any signal in building. If this the case, GPS is only good for outdoor robotics. Another thing is about the accuracy of the (...) (25 years ago, 20-Oct-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

Hi all, I was wondering if anyone has some kind of table or list to show the address of all the ports and what each bit is for on each port.

  Re: Please I need help!
 
Pete, It seems to me that a simple double pole double throw relay could be used to select one or the other module. That way you wouldn't need to tie up any other IC/OC pins. You fire one unit, get the return, then switch the relay and fire the other (...) (25 years ago, 19-Oct-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

  Re: Handyboard low voltage motor control
 
Good point... There is another way. You can build your own h-bridges using mechanical relays and maybe a few diodes. They drop zero volts, which is good. However, you obviously can't PWM the things. If you just want rudimentary speed control, you (...) (25 years ago, 18-Oct-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
