GMR Board

userHead puddletown 2014-07-25 07:29:47 67779 Views29 Replies
Hi There.

I am wondering how the arduino nanos and mega are interfaced with the GMR board. Does the GMR board need to be soldered with headers? Then do you connect wires from the microcontrollers to the headers soldered on the board based on the schematic? If so do these headers come with the GMR board?

Thank you.

I think it goes like this:
N1 > motors
N2 > URM sensors
Mega > sensors and automation

What other tasks planned for the Nanos?
I understand that the Nano number two was scheduled for sensors! off there is no connector provided therefor!

As I understand it, the GRM board does absolutely nothing, so use Arduinos Nanos and Atmeg alone without the GRM board, all pins of Nanos and Atmega are then available for use.

Thank you to tell me how the GRM board is used by other users.

I am very interested in  feedback.
I am also looking for code for the engine management (PID).

thank you in advance for your answers

Nanos are supposed to handle other tasks. Afaik, use mega for sensors. If you want to use more pins from mega, you could exchange the pin headers or add a taller one and bend the pins out. With F/M wire you can wire it up.

Thank you for your reply and the code for I2C coming ... I'll be patient
To connect the 3 CPU on GMR board, I understood.
But I would like to connect multiple sensors on the Nano 2 and I can not find the connectors for this purpose.
The existing analog and digital connectors seem wired for atmega cpu and not for the Nano; unless I am mistaken.
How do other owners of the GMR board they use?

Thank you in advance for answers

2014-09-02 18:46:44 Hello Jeffrob,

You could check the back of the board, like the photo which I mentioned, there are two female interfaces, these are Arduino nano interface. You can plug them on the board directly.

I‘ll try to write a post about how to use it with I2C code. Please be patient.

I just bought a GMR card and I can not find any documentation to use it.
I look at the drawing and I have a few questions.
1 - I have not found connectors designed to use the available pins on the Arduino Nano .. How do you do for it?
2 - The Arduino Nano 2 is designed to manage the sensors; However I can not find the correpondants connectors (this falls in the previous point).
3 - Does anyone know if there are code for managing 3 cpu I2C of GMR card and more generally for the overall management of the robot "HCR" [sensors, motors with encoders (PID, Speed, ...), camera ...].

thank you in advance for your answers

2014-08-08 22:02:13 Hello,
The Mega 2560 interface is male header, and Nanos' are female ones. so you can plug them on the board easily.
