I'm not really up to speed on Uart ports and how fast to expect them to pass info back and fourth. I'm sending and receiving to a Kangaroo X2 at 9600 baud and when I ask for postion feedback the response seems a little slow. Can I raise the baud rate and speed this up? Can I even do this?
From the ezb4 data sheet...
UART
Serial Expansion Port
Asynchronous serial Communication up to 3.75Mbaud
Code:
You'll have to make sure the kangaroo/sabertooth also have their baud rate set to match the ezb's change in baud rate... (via dips? Can you even change the Kangaroo's baud rate?)

After I think about it I do remember being able to adjust the baud rate for the kangaroo in the DEScribe software. So Steve is correct there.
It looks like I'm getting 9 bytes passing back from the Roo through the Uart. Does the buffer clear after it receives the uartread command? Sometimes if I get a failed move and and repeat the same combonation of comands to get and read information through the Uart the bytes are actually larger. Maybe 12 or more
DJ , thanks for the personal invitation to visit and offer of one on one schooling. I'm sure I'd leave a much better robot builder and part shopper. Visiting you guys at ground zero is on my bucket list and would be the third biggest thrill of my life.
