Hi everyone, I joined this group to do some research for a friend and noticed how cool your projects are. I'd like to learn more and help if I can so I thought...
Hello, I have a TJPro and I am trying to get it to read a compass sensor on the SPI. I am using the ICC11 c compiler. Interaction with the compass is very time...
Mike, The standard TJPro ICC11 Software (from Mr_robot) comes with a wait function built in. To use it there are two functions that you need to call. First at...

Hi Chris, Thanks for the post. I had seen the wait function called in one of the examples and I was going to search out its definition to see if the input...
Any news on when the TJ-PRO Arm Gripper is going to be available? The web site just says "soon". The video is cool! Is there any tendency for the TJ-PRO to...
You can get it now! and when you order it please remind mrrobot to change the web site. Also you will probably want to get 2 extra skids for the front so the...

Hello; I am having trouble running some of the robot experiments on the MTJPRO11 microprocessor. I am finding that some of the programs work and some do not....
Sounds like low batteries. Make sure your batteries are charged overnight before use. Also NiCds tend to loose their charge if not charged for a month or so....

Hello; I have it connected to a 8V dual tracking power supply, it is easier to work on because I don't have to worry about the batteries. Not sure what else to...
Unless you have a very expensive power supply, it probably does not furnish enough surge current for the motors. The beauty of NiCd batteries is they can...

You cannot use a power supply with motors or servos only NiCd batteries. Although the current drain on average is quite low for servos (100mA) the start up...

Yes you will notice the resistor pack in a socket on the MTJPRO replace that SIP with another value to reduce the current. I would try values from 600ohms to...

Thanks Scott! I removed the SIP and tried several resistor values. It turns out that with 1k of resistance I can get IR detection accuracy down to about 3.5...
