Create2 On D0 Not Working

Need some assistance, I have Create 2 Platform and recent purchased the EZ-bV4. in working with the tutorials on the site i as not able to get the EZ-b to control the Create 2, using the the Roomba movement panel.

I have ready multiple threads of folk having similar issues, and wanted to know if some has come up with a solution to this, I am not an electronic engineer so hopefully it will be something off the shelf.

Thanks in advance Alain

Every control has a ? (Question mark) next to the X (close). This information is displayed to you when ARC is loaded. Press the ? (question mark) on the iRobot Movement Panel and you will be brought to the manual page for that control. The diagram to connect and use the control is there.

Use the ? (question mark) next to all X (close) buttons for information.

Thansk DJ I tried that first with no luck then I tried the uart and no luck as well after that I powered down the ezb and rechecked all my cable and my EZB will not power up and the fuse is good.

For the create 2 pin out I used the attached doc. I have already opened a ticket for replacement or repair.

But I could not get it my create 2 to work on D0 or the Uart :-(

I've been thinking about making a 2 way iRobot Roomba Movement Panel that uses one of the ez-b hardware UART's. I'd like it to read sensor data as well.

I'll take a look this week if i have time

HI Dj , I just received word in my email that your support will not replace the EZB.

I am bit disappointing as i Followed all of the web site documentation and the Create2 document to connect the EZB to my create2 platform.

I have provide the document i used in an earlier post.

It is a bit disappointing as i am within the 90 day warranty period and I followed all of the documentation provided by this web site/forum and the creat2 website.

I would just like a replacement, anything you can dow would be appreciated.

Thanks Alain

Hello DJ,

Any word on the new two way Roomba/Create2 Movement Panel that uses one of the EZB Uart Ports and also has two way communications for reading sensor data? Thanks...Rick. :)
