Hello guys. I have little problem here. i'm trying to controll a Rover 5 http://www.robotgear.com.au/Product.aspx/Details/554-Dagu-Rover-5-Tracked-Chassis-with-Encoders-2-Wheel-Drive by using this driver Dagu Rover 5 chassis robot demo - Robotics - Arduino Forum . But when i'm trying to controll it throu the case switch, i'm not able to use analogWrite in the case, to stop the motors, i need to write analogWrite(MOTORA,0), it doesn't work, but if i write a delay(1000), then it works for a sec ... Any idias how to make it work with no delay function? thanks for help and sry about my bad english. here is may
code:
#define DIRECTIONA 4
#define MOTORA 2
#define DIRECTIONB 7
#define MOTORB 3
int led_red=13;
int led_green=8;
void setup ()
{
pinMode(led_green,OUTPUT);
pinMode(led_red, OUTPUT);
pinMode (MOTORA, OUTPUT);
pinMode (DIRECTIONA, OUTPUT);
pinMode (MOTORB, OUTPUT);
pinMode (DIRECTIONB, OUTPUT);
Serial.begin(115200);
Serial.println("Press any key to continue");
while(Serial.available()==0);
digitalWrite(led_red, HIGH);
} // end of setup
byte phase;
void loop ()
{
analogWrite (MOTORA, 100);
analogWrite (MOTORB, 100);
if (Serial.available()){
char input = Serial.read();
switch (input){
//switch (phase++ & 3)
case 's': // go up
digitalWrite (DIRECTIONA, 1);
digitalWrite (DIRECTIONB, 1);
analogWrite (MOTORA, 250);
analogWrite (MOTORB, 250);
delay(5000);
break;
case 'a': // turn left
digitalWrite (DIRECTIONA, 1);
digitalWrite (DIRECTIONB, 0);
//delay(2000);
break;
case 'w':
digitalWrite (DIRECTIONA, 0);
digitalWrite (DIRECTIONB, 0);
//delay(5000);
break;
case 'd': //turn right
digitalWrite (DIRECTIONA, 0);
digitalWrite (DIRECTIONB, 1);
//delay(2000);
break;
case 'q': // stop
analogWrite (MOTORA, 0);
analogWrite (MOTORB, 0);
delay(2000);
break;
} // end of switch
}
} // end of loop
