Ok so basically i have built a robotic arm and would like to control it from the computer. I have done the application for the computer and it works. I have...
Zack, It sounds like your robot arm is starving for current and the BX-24 is rebooting. You need a minumum of 2amps of available current to run each hobby...
Well yes, i use a RAMB II so it should be ok. But even if it were re-booting surly the servo's shouldnt move because of the variables start of value of 0....
If I recall a pulseoout 0 still makes a pulse. I can tell you that what you have described sounds like a current issue, or the servos are being told to go out...
Ill be trying 1 servo tomorrow, thanks. Yes, the batteries are normal rechargeable batteries. If 0.0 makes a pulse then that is probably the case. I'll try out...
My money is on Load Induced Processor Resets, too. Later, you might be able to condition a single supply to serve both processor and servo successfully but, at...
Hello, I have just 'discovered' this site and chip. I don't know why I've not come across it before as ive done a fair few searches for an easily programmable...
... it off the development board and plug it onto a breadboard for its final application ? Sure. It's usually just as easy to put a serial port connector (a...
Thanks Tom. Much appreciated your response with some code there as well. I bought a BasicStamp 2p for $89.00 AUS. As the XBasic chip is more powerfull and I...

Hello group I'm tryng to use Bx24 in a project that requires that one of the BX output pins delivers 4-20mA... Any ideas on how this can be done? Thanks ...
... Analog or digital? Do you need to send a metered value or a switched signal? Analog current loops, as I recall, use a 16mA swing, zero-to-full-scale....

Hello Tom! Those are hard questions! From what I understand, the idea is to put the microprocessor to simulate the behaviour of an analog 4-20mA sensor... So,...
David, I have used the AD420... component for years with great success! Single unit prices are about $19 per component, but you get what you pay for. It...
David, Read the datasheet. It will do 0-5V, 0-20mA, and 4-20mA. You can use the 0-5V out, but you'll need an op-amp to drive ANY voltage out. Unity gain for...
Seeing all the coverage of the 40th anniversary of the first men on the moon got me thinking about model rockets again. I was amember of a club between the...

Hi Everyone I just bought a Basicx-24 development kit and tried to test it following the manual which comes with it . My problem is the manual assumes that Im...
This is also how I connect. I use a Radio Shack branded USB-Serial adapter. I have no idea what chipset it actually uses. If my experience is any indication...
