dear viewers
here are some questions i need to ask:
1) my DC motor comes with a 10 pin optical encoder(supply current-10mA)
pin 1- GND
pin 2- Vcc
pin 3- dir
pin 4-standyby
pin 5 and 6 - A1 and A2
pin 7 &8 - B1 and B2
pin 9 and 10 - Z1 and Z2
how do i connect my encoder part to the handy board?
can i ignore the encoder?
my robot only needs to sense retroreflective white tape, can i just
use suitable sensors instead of using encoders?
( The pins I listed are just for details)
2) i am using a separate motor battery source of 30 V to connect to the
handy board cause my motors supply around 30V.what is roughly the
suitable and max. current needed for the 30V external battery source to
be able to supply to the handyboard to prevent the handyboard from
"frying"?
thank u for reading my problems
i would appreciate if anyone could respond to me directly to my email
address : soundstruck@pacific.net.sg
u could also reply to me on the mailing list if its for convenient for u
hope to hear some news
thank u

| 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)
