Motor Driver:

Roboteq I/O connector:
1 - DOUT1 - see led control above
2 - TX - green - top left on cpu connector
3 - rx - blue - top right on cpu connector
4 - DIN1 - e-stop - top right on e-stop connector
13 - gnd -  power switch led gnd
14 - 5v - power switch led + and e-stop top left 

CPU Box Connector:
top left - green - roboteq tx - roboteq I/O pin 2
top right - blue - roboteq rx - roboteq I/O pin 3
bottom left - power ground
bottom right - power vbatt

Power Switch Wiring:
C1 - power control
NO - vbatt
NC - ground
LED+ - roboteq i/o pin 14 (5v)
LED- - roboteq i/o pin 13 (gnd)

main power plugs put positive on the right, ground on the left
batteries use the opposite (positive on left, ground on right)
batteries also use center pin for balance ground, then highest voltage top right decreasing clockwise (lowest/first cell top left)

Modifications and Bodges:

Column
width500px

Power Board:

  • Vbat control (unlabeled between 12v and 6v) must be wired to pin 1 of its optorelay (immediately below the left main power connector)
  • Radio power control must be manually wired to a 2-pin KK connector (along with 5V) in the proto area
  • Optorelay for 6v control must be double up, and its associated resistor (vertical and to the left) halved to ~300 ohms

Arduino Shield:

  • Radio power control and VBat control must be manually wired (see tables above)
  • 12v control line transistor can be bypassed
  • motor driver is wired to serial uart 2
  • gumstix is wired to serial uart 1
  • tmp102 temp sensor resides on i2c bus
  • sbus wired to uart3
  • wiznet wired to default uart (shared with usb)

wiznet serial now comes in on ethernet spares:
brown to  R2in
striped brown to T1out

Self Power Reset

on kestrel this has been modified as follows to prevent the positive input from hitting the positive rail.
