I already replied to your CRM but I want to post this for others. A driver error is almost always permenet(eg a damaged part on the board). We will repair the board at no charge. You just have to send it in to us. There is one exception to driver failures being permenent. If the Logic power is hooke...

With the current firmware they are disabled. Once we have released the new manual with that information we will also release the firmware update that will enable those pins. Once they are enabled the S3 pin will optionally be able to control an external break or voltage clamp circuit(we will documen...

We are finished with the new firmware. At this point it is just waiting on time for all the final testing that is required before we can release a new firmware. I cant give an exact timeline on that but in the next two weeks is likely.

You can do that or you could get the matting Deans connector(eg female for male etc). Then connect the adapter cables raw ends to the screw terminals. That way you wont make your battery unusable in other applications.

You have a screw terminal version of the Roboclaw. It has all the same functions but the ground and 5v pins were consolidated to fit the screw terminals. First thing oyu hsould do it sheck if your encoders are working correctly. Hook the unit up to a PC via the USB port(and power) and connect the en...

On the new model Roboclaws we've added S4 and S5 signal pins. Im currently working on a firmware update that addes homing support using these pins. The home function will move the motor in reverse at 1/10th power until the index/home switch is detected. If the signal is already triggered the motor w...

We dont have anything specific to the mbed platforms. You will need to read through the roboclaw manual and probably look at the other examples we have for different languages.

The outputs are driven by PWM.

Once the board is put into bootloader mode by a software command(command 255 to be exact) you must update the firmware to clear the eeprom flag.

Yes. The python code we provide is completely public domain. you may modify it and use in any way you would like.
