What You Have Tried

Urgency

  • Is this for a class, competition, or deadline?

Hello,

I bought the Hiwonder chassis in order to program myself the servomotor and the DC-motors , this is a job for my school.

I tried to communicatie via a H-bridge, ADV8833, but without succes.

I bought your 4 channel Encoder Motor Module, but I do not understand how this module communicates with the motors

Can you please help me, by providing me :

  • the complete chassis_control source code,
  • the I²C communication protocol (register map),
  • the motor driver API documentation,
  • and, if available, the schematic or technical documentation for the encoder driver board?

I would like to interface the board from my own software rather than using the complete ArmPi image ( not allowed by school)

Thank you.

Johan
