Servo Speed

Some of my servos work with the servospeed command and some dont. When I run this script servospeed(d15,5) servo(d15,1) sleep(2000) servospeed(d17,5) servo(d17,100) sleep(2000) servospeed(d16,5) servo(d16,1) Only servo d17 runs slow. Both of the other two run at full speed. The servos are the same brand. I thought it was part of the bug but it...

Joystick

Hello, I have a Rapoo joystick and it has been working just fine but last week it started acting weird. The way it is supposed to work is when you first turn it on it has two lights that flash for a moment and then when it connects it turns on just one light. Last week it started to go back to both light flashing when I was controlling my robot and...

Wireless Hub

I purchased an IOGEAR wireless hub and it came with an AC adapter outputing +5 volts at 3.0A to power the wireless unit. Can I hook it up directly to the EZ-B?

Camera Control

I loaded the latest version of ARC and now the program runs slow. If I put the camera on pause everything is as usual however with the camera on, it takes between 2 and 4 seconds for the program to respond to any mouse click. I tried deleting the control and puting in a new one. No help.

H Bridge

Hello to all and Happy New Year. I am having an issue. When I turn on my H Bridge it not only runs the motor it is supposed to but it also runs a modified servo that is not connected. If I change ports for the H Bridge control it changes the modified servo that it also controls (sometimes). Is there a solution such as a draw down resister on the...

Fan

DJ, Do you have the little 5V fans for sale yet? If not will you soon?

Mouse Wheel Control

DJ, You know how you can click on an area on the screen and you then can scroll up or down with your mouse. This works on all the controlls in ARC however if you click on the background it does not work. It would be really slick if it did with the size I am working with. Right now it takes up about two screens worth and I have to use the scroll...

Hello, Does any one know the brand name of the camera pictured in the tutorial? I have been looking to buy a USB wireless camera and I cant find anythng on line at all.

Spark

Here is one for youall. I have a spark generator (multivibrator atached to a coil) on board my bot. When I turn it on it causes my modified servo, located near by, to go on. Is there a way to cure this? I will let youall in on what I am using it for once I get it all working properly.

Release Notes

I dont see any release notes for 2021.01.15.00. Am I missing something?

Motor Stall

I am running a gear motor on my robots sholder. It is 6 to 24 volts (I am running about 11 to 12 volts) and draws 90 to 150 mA. I accidentally ran it past a stop and stripped the gears when it stalled. Can I prevent this from happening again with a fuse? If so what amperage should the fuse be?

LCD Display

DJ, I am out of Digital Ports and I want to use a LCD Display. Can I use a 12C port and if so do I need to purchase a special interface and how would I input the text since the only control available under 12C is blinkin and nothing that I can see in Script? I await your input.

Modified Servo

Modified servo has no board number option

Finger Pad

Hello DJ, When you click on the ? for servo - finger pad, you get info for servo-sound. Love all the new controls. Will servo speed be working any time soon?

Data Ports

Hello to all, Well, I am out of data ports. Yes, I have used all 20 and need more. Is there a way to run two EZ-Bs in conjunction? I dont think so. DJ, would you build me a duo? Is it feasable? I read on the forum where someone added a whole bunch of additional inputs but that is like running two servos off of one port and that will not work. Any...

Hbridge

Hello to all, I am powering my drive motors with an HBridge and it works great except when I first turn on the EZ-B, before it sees the Bluetooth, the HBridge sends power to the motors. Does anyone know how to avoid this? Also, my joy stick is backwards. Anyone know how to reverse it? Best regards,

Speaker Power

Okay, so I bought the USB sound card and it works great with head phones but I want to run it to the speaker in my Robot. I guess I need a LITTLE amp. Anyone have a simple answer?
