Hello,
Although the indicator lamps (In1, In2, In3, In4) show that the signals are received by the motor driver module, no voltage is send to the motors.
I am using this wiring:
Please post real schematics, not that toy picture with a birdnest if coloured lines.
I wonder how the hidden controller is powered as well as logic power to the L298.
I don't know what you mean with hidden controller, also I thought that the driver shield is capable of creating the logic-voltage from the power supply, so that it needs no special supply for the logic-voltage (5V) .
Check that data sheets for the driver. Most drivers are fed by 5 volt to work.
The 5V - control lamp is on, so I don't think, that this is the problem ... ?
It's correct that the L298N can generate 5 volt if a certain strap is in the right position. (The L293 has no 5 volt.)
What is that thing between the controller and the batteries? Schematics........
Here from the data sheet: 5V pin supplies power to the switching logic circuitry inside the L298N IC. If the 5V-EN jumper is in place, this pin acts as output and can be used to power up the Arduino. If the 5V-EN jumper is removed, you need to connect it to the 5V pin on Arduino.
Do you mean the switch, that is directly behind the batteries? I have not included this in my circiut anyways.
Yes, the 5V - EN - jumper is in place.
Does anybody know, which of the other jumpers must be removed for proper functioning?
I am using this motor driver module:
Greetings
Are you setting A ENABLE and/or B ENABLE HIGH?
Confirm the enable jumpers are installed or you are suppling enable (PWM) levels to the pins.
Get your DMM out and confirm proper voltages.
