Finished 2DOF 12V DC wiper arduino playseat

[Tombo]

Hi,
thanks for info. I have jumpered everything but there is no motor movement. If I run the sample code from pololu and use it as a shield it works but if jumper it there's no function. Did i miss something?

I connected like in the pikture shown here http://www.pololu.com/docs/0J49/4.b

Arduino -> VNH5019
2 -> M1INA
4 -> M1INB
9 -> M1PWM
GND -> GND
5V -> VDD

Hello Tombo
If you use my arduino code, I could try to help you
but if you use another code, it is too much work: reading this example code, try it and see what's wrong...

please describe more your first attempt
yours

Hi,
im using your firmware and like i said i modified pinouts in code and as shield direcktly sticked into arduino is working. But i want to place it next to th arduino in a box so i want to connect it with wires. But if i wire it up like shown in last post it doesm't work. I don't know why so i'm asking if i' missing a wire or something else.

Ps: Great thanks to you and kalarius with your help i got my electronics a big step towards my goal

TO RacingMat

at you code you have a potmin =208 and pot max=815 values that are the limits of the pots.

I want the limits to be from 22H to EEH because of my pots

do you know the min and max values for this?

@Kalarius: Hello!
I converted your hex values to decimal values here : http://sebastienguillon.com/test/javascript/convertisseur.html
22F -> 559
EEH -> 238

dear friend

i built my simulator. i use your confg. for covertor and use your code for arduino
so can you help me to set x-convertor and x-extractor


thanks

Is it posible to not use 2 computeres ?

I am going to make this seat it looks really nice !

And what are the diemension on the tubes.

do you have futher drawings.

[kalarius]

you can use just one computer
but the cpu must be i7 at 3GHz
with slower the game seems to stack.

It is better to use 2 computers with lower and cheaper profile
for the game I have use I5 anf Gforce 630gt and 8GB ram windows 7 pro

for the motors windows xp home Pentium 4 2Gb ram Video on the board

the lenght is 67cm but it depend on the position of the seat. Place the seat horizontal and mesure the length

I am going to make this seat it looks really nice !

And what are the dimension on the tubes.

Hi oomaniacoo! Thanks for your appreciation

Good luck for your project!

Re-read the (long) post, the dimensions are at the end:
tube 30x20x1,5 (1,1 kg/m) 5,4m
tube 16x16x1,5 (0,7 kg/m) 4,1m

Sorry I haven't more drawings: it depends on your size and seat, and wheel!

Hi.

I've been experiencing some freezes with Arduino code based on yours. When I start Converter, the sim runs fine but after a while it freezes for seconds...Coincidence or not, it usually happens when there's a harsher game movement. Looking at arduino, I'd say that the extractor doesn't stop sending game values (USO: LxxRxx), because the Rx led keeps blinking.

Any clues?
Ever happened to you?

I'll probably set up a network port for USO values for debugging.

Cheers
