This application notes is a guide to getting up and running with RoboClaw.
Combat Robot RC Setup
In this Application Note looks at setting up the RoboClaw’s RC mode and hardware for control of a combat robot.
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.
RoboClaw Encoders and the A-Star LCD
In this Application Note the LCD screen of an A-Star microcontroller is used to display the encoder counts of a RoboClaw motor channel.
ESP8266 Advanced Control of RoboClaw
This Application Note covers using AJAX functionality to build a web interface for wireless control of a RoboClaw via the esp8266.
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.
Robotic Lawnmower Build
This Customer Project article takes a look at a nicely polished robotic lawnmower build.
Calibrating Motor Controller Voltage Readings
In some cases the voltage read by a motor controller will need to be calibrated to match the actual power supply voltage. This Application Note covers the process of doing so.
ESP8266 Wireless Control of RoboClaw
The poular esp8266 wifi board can be used to wirelessly control a RoboClaw motor controller. This App Note provides example code and covers configuring everything needed.
Limit and Home Switches with RoboClaw
Limit and home switches can be used to stop motors automatically for safety and functional reasons. This Application Note details the limit and home switch features of the RoboClaw motor controller.
