I have a project im working on, i have electric wheel chair motors connected up through the sabertooth 2x25. im trying to add an electric actuator ( one off of electric wheel chair that tilts it back) my question is how do i connect it to a servo to make it remote operated. Thanks for your help!!
Is the motor just a 12 volt gear driven or screw type ..... if so just use a double throw/double pole switch that the servo is hocked up to, that way you can have forward and reverse.
I have various chair motors and some of the ones that are used for tilting and such don't even need limiting switches they have some kind of slip clutch built in.
Here is a crude wiring diag for a switch.
Get a switch with a neutral position in the middle
I would use an H Bridge.
Me too, but simple also works.
Where can i get an H Bridge from? -Thanks for the replies
Here you go H Bridge SparkFun sells them
Thank you.
@jrick63 I'd use the BV4113 that is EZ-Robot Certified. The sparkfun TG is too much work
@jrick63, DJ is absolutly correct. Since I put in all the old ones in my robot I forgot there is a better and much easier one now available form EZ-B. I would go with the BV4113.
