Hi All,
I would like to use the Serializer on a 4WD rover chassis. What would be the best way to connect the 4 motors with the serializer, if at all possible, and will the .NET library support this?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Rini
You have three possibilities:
1: use motor card like scorpion who can work in tank mode
2: remove 2 motors
3: test to use 2*2 motor in serial but GHM04 use more than 2A
for the .NET library no probleme because you plug only 1 motor by connection (in real 2 if you test 3).
I don't have test 3 (you take the responsability ^^)

Thanks for the reply it got me thinking:
1. Would this scorpion motor card be used in combination with the serializer? how.
Can I compare this with using external H-bridges to drive higher amped motors.
When using an external H-Bridge would this give me the same functionality as when driving the motors using the serializers internal DC ports,.
2. Not an option ;-)
3. I am not an expert in electronics but would using the motors in a serial configuration, 'dramatically' influence speed and power.
If using external h-bridges wouldn't limit (??) me when using the .net library I could run the motors in parallel configuration.
Any thoughts?
Hi!!!
1/ The scorpion card work with RC (like an servomotor) and not PWM => you can't use embeded PID with this card you must build it.
The best way use external H-bridge you can find an example inside the documentation of serializer but i do'nt know if you can used internal DC ports with it. (page 7, 10 , 11 v2.1)
3/ you can serialize motor why not (it my point of view) and have 2*2 motors in parallel configuration.
