(...) I have checked my serial charger board with hyper terminal. It is working perfectly. I have checked also the connections between the charger board and the HC11 and they are ok. (...) I have checked every wire connection between the HC11 and (...) (23 years ago, 13-Jan-01, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

I have designed a simple lead acid charger for 12 V batteries and i am looking for a software program for 68hc11 microprocessor in order to monitor certain charging characteristics ( voltage, current, temperature). Thank you. (23 years ago, 12-Jan-01, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

The HB is supposed to be in special test mode, see (URL) . Re your downloading problems, first, see the debug info at (URL) the Windows serial debug test there, make sure that the serial signals are getting from the HB's RJ11 connector to the 68HC11 (...)

| | downloading the pcode during assembly
|

hi, I am during the assembly phase where I am supposed to be able to download the pcode to the handy board. I've placed on my handyboard a UM62256A-10L as RAM a MC47HC132N and a PICVUE 16x2 LCD PVC160203P All the test from the handyboard assembly (...)

(...) I would suggest shutting it down early (say 5 ticks early) and using a "jog" mode whereby brief pulses are sent to the motor to move it the remaining distance. Lets say you shut it off at 19 (targeting 24) and the motor/load's momentum carries (...) (23 years ago, 12-Jan-01, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

(...) Actually I was simplifying too much here. My goal is to be able to execute a relatively accurate 90 deg. turn to "round the curve" in a narrow hallway and to be able to spin on axis (robot is circular) a full 180 so I actually can count on (...)

(...) No, your conclusion is too broad, simply stated if you don't monitor motor current (and to some extent model the inertia of the motor) in software, then your damping algorithm (which is effectively a constant based on your description) won't (...)

(...) It certainly helps. I guess I'll stick to my kludge... it's easier. ;) So in order to do effective rotation sensors I need to monitor not only the rotations, but the power applied to the motor as well? That seems fairly complex but I guess (...) (23 years ago, 11-Jan-01, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

You step into the morass that separates reality from theory :-) The "right" way to do this is to measure the current on the servos, ramp their accelleration up and then down again as you approach your final endpoint. Read up on feedback systems and (...) (23 years ago, 11-Jan-01, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
