    Here where I live I can not find parts mentioned in the assembly simulator tronicgr.
    I'm following this tutorial down this site: http://rapidshare.com/files/351277079/t ... ffline.zip
    he posted the video on youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WVItAoPYUtI
    is overwritten as:

    -Parallax's Basic Education Board with Stamp2
    Two-HB-25 motor controllers (Parallax)
    Two-chip ADC ADC0831

    there is no other way.
    someone could donate or sell me and send me, so I can build my simulated.

    não consigo encontra peças para o simulador

    aqui onde moro não encontro peças, mencionadas na montagem do simulador do tronicgr.
    estou seguindo este tutorial abaixado deste site: http://rapidshare.com/files/351277079/t ... ffline.zip
    postado por ele no video do youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WVItAoPYUtI
    tem como subistituir:

    -Parallax's Basic Stamp2 with education board
    -Two HB-25 motor controllers (Parallax)
    -Two ADC0831 ADC chips

    se não existir outra forma.
    alguém poderia me doar ou vender e me enviar, para que eu possa construir o meu simulado.

    Hello, instead of the tronic board, may I suggest the Pololu 12v12 control board http://www.pololu.com/catalog/product/1393 , they will handle up to 30amps at 12 volts. ( I run mine at 22.5 amps no problems) You will need one per motor, but easy to wire up.
    If you want the movement of the tronic joyrider, then use 12 volt winch motors. They have enough power to shift some weight.
    Refer to this thread by Aldoz my-3dof-project-is-born-t3096.html and any post by eaorobbie.
    Cheers, David.

    Hi bsft, please take a look to the attached pic.
    maybe you mean that you set the MAX CURRENT in the jrk config utility at 22.5 A?

    If yes, it's a great thing! I am using it at 12.069 as you can see.
    I had to do some tests about but never get the time to do that!

    If you confirm me so I will can to have more power to my motion system!
    In fact the winches can work with more than 12 Amps (so and so 25) and since now I cut the winches power to 12 Amps obtaining NOT the complete power! (I was thinking that was too dangerous to get up this value considering the jrk work at 12Amps (just peaks to 30Amps)

    So, if you confirm me, have you some issues using 22.5 Amps? too many heat?

    Thx!

    Hello Aldoz, yes I mean 22.5 amps Max Current. I have heatsinks on the big chips and a fan blowing air into the box they are in, so they barely get warm. No problem what so ever.
    [​IMG]
    The max current is for BIG movements. I contacted Pololu direct and they say this is fine to run with cooling.
    Cheers, David.

    Ahh great news! Next days I will to try to get up to 22.5 Amps, I am sure I will get a bit more power!
    Another thing, the box you are using where you put your jrk it's cool!

    I have a similar box but it haven't the big hole where you can mount the fan.
    Have you some url where I can buy or find it? I can find it but without the big hole

    Thank you very much! :cheers:

    The box , I found in the garbage at work. It is a 3 phase switch box. I removed the switch on top and it happened to be big enough to put a fan on. There are holes on the side for wiring to go through, so there is good airflow. If you find a big enough box, perhaps get a cheap holecut saw blade set, and cut some homes in for airflow. Failing that, a jigsaw.
    Remember to put heatsinks on the big chip of the jrk, with heatsink grease.
    Cheers, David.

    thanks for the help.
    looking at your project again, I understood.
    see if I'm right.
    I create a circuit like this link:

    Yes, you would have to build Tronicgr electronics, prices vary widely Pololu plates for the issue of import taxes, etc.
    I live in Argentina and the best option for me was building at home ...
    Any questions I can help ...
    Sorry I also use Traslator :lol:

    you can buy from Pololu direct, you will need to pay by paypal. I am in Australia and have bought 5 boards and had them delivered direct to me.
