 | | Stepper Control
|
|
I am a new Handyboard user and would like to control a pair of 5 wire unipolar stepper motors. I followed the links in the FAQ related to steppers which included some IC code. My problem is that my Handyboard won't load that particular code written (...) (24 years ago, 16-May-00, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

| | how many servos on handyboard?
|
|
I'd like to know how many servos the handy board can control. On the FAQ it says 2, in the documentation it says 4 DC motors. what's the deal? (am I stupid? I'm new at this) also, when you plug an expansion board, do you get 6 EXTRA servos? or those (...) (24 years ago, 16-May-00, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

(...) Except that I don't think it counts at 2Mhz, rather I think it counts at 500Khz (2 / 4 = ECLK) (I may be totally off base here, since I've not read the pink book in about 6 years) that would put your max at 32767/500000 = .0655 at 1000 ft/sec (...)

(...) I think the register maxes out at 32767. Since it's a 2 MHz processor, this gives: (32767 cycles) / (2,000,000 cycles/second) = 0.01638 seconds Up here in the Rocky Mountains, the speed of sound is about one centimeter every 143 (...) (24 years ago, 16-May-00, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

| | Ultrasonic maximum timing
|
|
Greetings all, I'm using a homebuilt sonar based on Kam Leang's design, which seems to be working quite well. I just have one question with regard to the timing on the input port. I'm using the same sonar driver as for the polaroid - right now I (...) (24 years ago, 16-May-00, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

(...) SCAM ! (not SPAM). These Nigerian attempts are well publicised in the media in Australia. They used to arrive by snailmail (my deceased father got one). Email ! moving up in the world !

I've been getting snail mail from this same group for years, always offering to let you have a third of some huge sum of money if you will only help them smuggle it out of their country and into your account. What they actually want is access to (...) (24 years ago, 15-May-00, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

(...) A sad attempt at a con job. They claim they want yo give you custody of $35M (of whoich you're supposed to keep 30%), and all you have to do is send them your bank account number. Somehow I rather doubt a legitimate offer of this sort (if this (...) (24 years ago, 15-May-00, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

In theory yes. Since the motor will be powered by the aux power supply only, as long as it is at 3 volt, it should be OK.
