Auto Shut Down Of Ezb And Computer?

I have been successful with the Help of Alan (@thetechgruru) in having my robot automatically start by applying power to the EZB and starting my computer. This allows the robot to fully activate.

I have built a script that upon verbal command I can get the program and the EZB to shut down.

My next goal is to have this verbal command disconnect the EZB and shut off the computer. I know there is a command to disconnect the EZB which I can add to the verbal shut down script. I can also add a relay which applies and removes the EZB power prior to startup and after shut down.

My question is: Is it possible to shut off the computer from the EZB ?


ARC Pro

Upgrade to ARC Pro

Harnessing the power of ARC Pro, your robot can be more than just a simple automated machine.

Oops... In re-reading the text from Alan he said I still need to do the Start Script. I will give it a try.

Hi Alan, Posts crossed... So if I leave the start as is with the loop, it should be fine. Then I just need the shutdown script to close running scripts and command the hibernate function.

When this works, I can use the embedded computer as planned. Thanks
