Ez-Board Auto Disconnect
Just wondering, is it possible to shut off the Bluetooth auto disconnect? I'm going to be running the board as a controller for two servos that will move a distance sensor. This means the board will not be receiving commands constantly as I will need to communicate with the sensor. If it can't be shut off, is there an option to increase the wait...

question
Rj45 And Ez-B
Hi there I need to use wired lan (RJ45) to control my ez-b on a long distance. I've searched the forum for solution but haven't found. How can I replace the bluetooth with wired lan and how long RJ45 cable can I use? I've read that RJ45 could be up to ~90 meters (295ft) but will ez-b be able to read the signal at that length? Thanx
