Using Git and GitHub to Download Our Libraries and Code Examples
Our libraries and example code for interfacing with the RoboClaw and MCP motor controllers can be found on GitHub. This Application Note covers how to obtain our code repositories.
RC Mode Configuration with Buttons
In this Application Note the RC mode of RoboClaw is configured with the onboard buttons avoiding the need to use Motion Studio.
Saving and Restoring RoboClaw Configurations
A RoboClaw’s configuration can be saved and loaded from a file. This Application Note looks at how to do this.
Motor Controller Selection
When selecting a motor controller there are three main specifications that must be known about the motor you are planning on using. These are voltage, running current and stall current. This articles covers all three and how to pair a motor controller based on these key specifications.
Motor Controller Hardware Precautions
There are several hardware and software precautions that must be taken to prevent damage to a RoboClaw or MCP motor controller. This application note covers the details of each of them.
Auto Tuning with Motion Studio
In systems with a PID controller the proportional, integral and derivative values must be set properly for the controller to operate well. Motion Studio features software to automatically tune these values for a motor and encoder combination. In this Application Note we’ll look at how to use it and fine tune the results.
Graphing in Motion Studio
Motion Studio feature the ability to graph different aspects of a motor, encoder and the controller against each other in real time. This Application Note covers the use of this feature.
