Thanks again for taking the time to write a thorough reply. The stall current rating is approximately 30 amps. It is a 24 V motor. The load is constant (mass being lifted). I need to read the current, so that I can set it to cut off if a given mass (load) is exceeded. I will try and look into the Si...

Hi, Thanks so much for you very quick and thorough reply. In regard to what you said: The clamp is approved for DC. I am very certain of the amps I should be reading in this test case, since it is an industrial application and we have sold thousands of these units with other controllers. So the set ...

Hi, Thanks for the answer, I updated the firmware/arduino library and it now works. Was using the old 8-bit version. However, the actual Amp reading seem rather high, compared to what I get on my current clamp and old motor controller (other brand). For an example, I read approximately 14 A on the c...

Hi, I am new to using Roboclaw and Arduino and I am having some trouble reading the current using the ReadCurrents command. So far I have got: #include "BMSerial.h" #include "RoboClaw.h" #define address 0x80 BMSerial terminalSerial(0,1); RoboClaw roboclaw(5,6); uint8_t currentFro...
