question

Is It Possible To Run The H-Bridge Pwm Movement With The Sabertooth.

Is it possible to run the H-Bridge PWM Movement without adding any more parts. Do I just use this panel on the sabertooth instead of the sabertooth driver. I am confused. I do have the Sabertooth and the EZB3 running on wheelchair motors. The sabertooth works fine but always on high speed.
question

Ez-Bit Connector Stl Not Printable?

Hi EZ-Robot. I'm not sure if this is a bug or not but, I'm milking all of the STL files from ARC and I notice the EZ-Bit connector for the Rotational Servo is marked not printable. It is also not available to download from the website either. This used to be and, I feel, should be a printable part. Was this intentional or just a woopsie Anyway, I...

question

Ok, I Got The Sabertooth 2X25 , Does It Matter What Port I Connect It To.

ok, I got the sabertooth 2X25 , I was wondering (for EZB support) does it matter what port i connect it to. How do you guys have it hooked. I got the motors and battery, and +5v hooked just fine. I need to know which port to hook up the S1 line. Or, does it matter? I see where in the example it hooks to D0, so I guess I will try that.
