increase the baudrate

I would like to speed up the UART communication with MCP236 and Raspberry. The baudrate actually is 38400 bps. I tried to increase it, but without any success becasue the Python with Raspberry and the MCP don't communicate anymore. Of couse i changes also the baudrate from Python side. any idea?

mode percent

In General Settings--> Coomand Settings, it is possible to select with the MCP236 the Mode Position, Mode Instant Speed, Mode Average speed and Mode Percent.
What is it?
I would like to control the motor in current mode with a external analog signal (ACS712).

Re: serial command analog input

Sorry but in the user manual I didn't find any description about ReadSingnals in the Packet Serial. what is the command number? Can I have more details about it so I can implement it in the library? if you write directly the code witch i should write in the library we could avoid some ping pong mess...

C++ library for Raspberry

How can I use MCP236 with Raspberry programming in C++ ? do you have a library?
I saw that there are for Arduino in C, but not for Raspberry.

do you have an easy example? Like how to read the version of MSP236.

serial command analog input

I would like to use the ADC in the MCP236. That signal will be not used to control the motor driver, but simply like a normal ADC. So instead to implement in my circuit an ADC, I thought to use the internal ADC of the motor driver. I set in the configuration setting: [ing] [/img] Mode Setting: Posit...

E-Stop Reset by Python

How to stop the motor by python? is it possible to receive a code example?
I was reading E-Stop Reset Method, but there is not so much description and the Python library doesn't include the methods.

Re: R and L setting by serial

I will send you all. The firmware is 1.1.7 of MCP236. I cand set and get many parameters from the driver in the same python file (version, PIDs, set current and speed, etc). I will send you not all project but a test-file with few lines code: import time from roboclaw_3 import Roboclaw #Windows comp...

Re: R and L setting by serial

Firmware Version 1.1.7 I can read and set many parameters and work fine by python library. Probably there just is an issue or bug. Reading the PID position by Python library, I receive the same value of PID speed I will send you an email with the library modified and the few code lines to read the R...

Re: R and L setting by serial

Dear I modified what you said without any result. My model is MCP236. Can you try on your laboratory with the same model? What I receive is (1,0,0). So the data[0] is 1 (the command executed properly). I treid to attached here the sources, but it is not possible. Can I send you it by mail in support...
