Re: ROS RoboClaw Support

Hi the fact that this driver has been developed by a third party, this will not provide support or a minimum troubleshooting, as is the case with the current version that odometry does not provides any input. despite ROS does can be developed with Python and C++, C++ is faster as this is a complied ...

ROS RoboClaw Support

Dear ION Motion Control

We would like to know if you will provide a real support for ROS in C++ and Python, as ROS is becoming more an more relevant across the market.

we have used the python ROS driver but is incomplete, have issues and don't work properly, C++ is not even developed.




Thanks

Re: Wiring multiple Roboclaw with Nvidia TX1

Which orientation are the RX and TX labels in relation to. RX to the Roboclaw or to teh UART? Im assuming it is in relation to the UART so RX is the transmit(eg S2) from the Roboclaw to the UART. If so it looks correct though it is hard to be sure since some traces pass under each other that look t...

Re: Wiring multiple Roboclaw with Nvidia TX1

I had published my pcb diagram is very rudimentary you can find the link here one drive https://1drv.ms/f/s!ApnM6Kx0frMEgQWOHBlMhBtoarg0 as for the resistor I have a 4.7 K, but, I’m thinking in replaced it for 1K , as for ground in the design I had removed the ground fill for easy visualisation Thanks

Re: Wiring multiple Roboclaw with Nvidia TX1

Great, I about to complete my design from a Jetson TX1/Orbitty carrier board to three Roboclaw controllers under one single UART, on where the MCU has a pull up resistor on the 5V (I'm using a logical level shifter for RT/TX to 5V TTL) however I need to confirm if the vale of the resistor, as the ma...

Re: Wiring multiple Roboclaw with Nvidia TX1

Hi

I wonder if you have any diagram showing this type of connections (without having a common 5V)

Thanks

Re: Wiring multiple Roboclaw with Nvidia TX1

Thanks, but I want to connect two Roboclaw with one serial in this case can I use the power from the Roboclaw but not from the MCU? despite the diagram (see Roboclaw user manual Page 38) in this case can I use the MCU 5V and the pull up resistor to RX but not having connected the 5V to the Roboclaw ...

Roboclaw poower supply

I what to use a 22.2 Lipo Battery for my robot, but my motors are 12V, can I feed the 22.2v to the roboclaw and run the motors? or do I need to convert to 12 V and feed to the M/C?

I'm new to this, so I'm not sure if it works

Wiring multiple Roboclaw with Nvidia TX1

Hi I'm trying to wire two roboclaw to a UART provided by a Nvidia Jetson TX1, but I have some questions 1.)Based on the user's guide manual a resistor between the MCU RX (In this case the Jetson Nvidia) to S2 and S1 to TX, and the 5V from the Roboclaw to MCU and gound then the other roboclaw S2 to t...
