Old video, so maybe my info is outdated. But anyway. If you have the material that's going to be kept on the left and have the waste material on the right, you should, as far as I know, use the right cut (green) snips. If you reverse the scenario you use the left cut (red). Straight cut (yellow) are made for short cut inserts.

Hey, I plan to power 2 servos like those in the video and an Arduino UNO from one battery source. What would you recommend me to do? Should I do it the way you showed in the video or use a 9V battery?
@Orionrobots
@Orionrobots 4 ай бұрын
Hello, a 9v battery would be too high a voltage for the servo motors without a regulator, they also don't have a lot of current capacity. For two motors, a bunch of AA batteries (maybe 6) plus a 5v regulator capable of a few amps (like a UBEC) would be a good idea.

@Orionrobots
@Orionrobots 4 ай бұрын
The robot is based on the me-arm robot. The code is in micropython. There's no sensors on it other than the servo motor closed loop, so the object has to be placed where the arm expects for the program to work - it's all position based. A restart means pressing a button to run the program one more time.

This was REALLY useful and educational! It is very good to know that it will generate that voltage spike when it is turned on! It seems to me that they did not include some actual(ly) sound activation circuitry - it obviously needs something like a delay so that the main actual power supply circuitry gets that little bit of time to level, even out. Maybe that spike even is a side effect of the output activation circuitry itself! THAT of course would be rather terrible, wouldn't it! Anyway, I am only guessing here at to what it could be caused by (and what it should be prevented by - as an addition to the circuitry that has not factually been included - preventes from being possible to occur, even. It seems to be some kind of discharge.. it must be! Somehow I also wonder if the word 'static' got any place in the equation.. but than, even though it must oftentimes will receive the electricity it charges up a different way (it would not really matter), all types of capacitors store their charge statically ("as static"?) of course, so the discharge of a(ny) capacitor by definition would be a static discharge, so to say.

Can the beeping sound be made less loud, or is there only an option to switch between on and off? In fact I was thinking of soldering a little adjustable potentiometer in-between the beeper and one of its wires, maybe someone could advise me on what value would probably be suitable?

Hmm, I'd have to check the manual to see how the controls worked. I'll admit, that after unboxing it, I nearly only use it for different voltage outputs and monitoring current while doing it - although i use it for that a lot. As for adding the extra resistor, possible, but take huge care before rummaging in a power supply, there will be capacitors with nasty shocks in them, and stay well clear of the mains side.

How can you get it to generate more current than volts
@Orionrobots
@Orionrobots 4 ай бұрын
If you attach a device that needs a lot of current, it would generate more current, up to a limit. There may be a constant current mode, but if the device has a large enough resistance then it may not be able to adjust voltage enough to make that current. It has a voltage limit of 30v.

Hi! I have the APS3010H version of this. Identical except it has memory buttons. Watch out, as there are a couple of major design flaws. Firstly, it has two switchmode power supplies: one for the PSU output and another for the controller circuitry. The former has mains filter circuitry, but the latter has absolutely none, so it squirts bucket loads of RFI back down the mains. Even ferrites on the mains lead don't clean it up. Secondly, there is totally inadequate filtering on the output. Using an oscilloscope to probe anything connected with this supply is totally futile.

That's bullshit or you have a defective unit. I own the 120V 3A version of this unit from its original producer Wanptek. While the ripple output filtering isn't stellar, it's quite good, especially taking the price point in consideration. RF back swamping the line is negligible

The green terminal is earthed, the negative isn't necessarily and could be isolated. So to be totally sure, you might want to connect the negative through to the green if you mean it to be earth referenced.

Be careful, the power supply itself is grounded, but the output isn't (floating), so as long as you don't make a connection to the case of the powersupply working with an Oszilloskop on the power draining objekt connected to this unit, it should be safe. I myself are always working with an Isolation transformer if grounding is not clear

They are double A batteries. I've been testing multiple connectivity things, including esp32 based wi-fi, BlueTooth BLE with either Bluefruit or the nrf52840, and using a Raspberry Pi Zero W for wirelessly debugging the code on the Pico with lots of logging and visualisation. It can likely run on 6xAA or potentially smaller, although one thing I wanted to ensure was motor current would not often lead to Raspberry pi Pico resets due to power drops. This was something I saw with a smaller battery set plus the ESP32 fairly frequently. A LiPo/LiIon solution would work well here on space and weight, but I've kept that complexity out so it's easier for people to get hold of the parts to copy the robot.

My book "Robotics at Home with Raspberry Pi Pico" also starts with simple CircuitPython examples but builds up to fairly complex robotics algorithms using the Pico.
