Hello, I found a solution / work around and as I have looked around many people had the same problem so this might help them too: >> if the first motor should go from 0-180 and at the SAME TIME a second motor should go from 0-90: (or any other value in the same direction) for( int angle =0; angle angle = 0-180 pwm.setPWM(1, 0, angleToPulse(pos2) ); // motor 2 (at pin 1) will go to "pos2" distance --> angle / 2 = 0-180 / 2 = 0-90 } Now it took me a while to figure out when the motor don't go in the same direction for example motor 1 goes from 0-180 (= +180) and motor 2 from 90-0 (=-90) so I came up with this "math" solution. pos2 = ("angle"-180) / -2 , this means at 0 --> (0-180)/-2 = 90 --> at 90 --> (90-180)/-2 = 45 --> and by 180 --> (180-180)/-2=0 and that WORKS !!!! I have now 5 servos running in one loop all with different angles and in both directions... HOPE this helps everyone with the same problem :D

If I understand correctly then it is possible to power the servo driver and the arduino via the vin pin with the same power source. Since I have no way of operating the arduino nano with the USB connection, I would like to operate everything with a 6v or 9v battery. How would I have to connect the whole thing together so that everything works.
@robojax2 жыл бұрын
walaikum salaam, yes you can connect the same voltage to Nano and servo. But the servo motor voltage rating must match that of Arduino Nano. what do you mean how? if motor and Nano voltage is the same, then simply connect the board + and _ to the battery and the servo motor power and GND pins to the same battery. So simply check if the servo can operate with 6V or 9V. if not, then you can connect them. for example if servo is 5V and you got 9V, then you need a step down converter to convert the voltage form 9V or 6V to 5V suitable for servo motor.

this will need full new code to be rewritten. You will learn how to connect 2 or more potentiometer from this video kzbin.info/www/bejne/labdaIyZhN-poLc and then watch V1 of PCA9685 to see how we send values to each servos and the values you get from pots should be mapped to the values need for each servo. it should work. If you don't watch both videos and try to understand it, it will not work. I have not left anything out. Good luck.

This is Version 2 (V2) of the series. please see V1 to V4. this speed is the maximum, Simply add delay between each step to slow it down. Please subscribe. I appreciate it and helps my channel grow. Thank you

What would happen if i don't use This servo driver?
@robojax2 жыл бұрын
what do you mean by "if you don't use it"? we use it drive multiple servo. Arduino can't do it itself. if you add the current from each servo, the total would be huge and Arduino board can't handle it.

Hello friends!! Greetings from Chile, I have 3 PCA 9685,connected,the first moves servos without problems, but the second and third do not move the servos, they turn on with their red light , it will be a sketch error, I want to move 32 servos to different positions, this is the sketch test: #include #include Adafruit_PWMServoDriver servos1 = Adafruit_PWMServoDriver(0x40); Adafruit_PWMServoDriver servos2 = Adafruit_PWMServoDriver(0x41); Adafruit_PWMServoDriver servos3 = Adafruit_PWMServoDriver(0x42); unsigned int pos0=125; // ancho de pulso en cuentas para pocicion 0° unsigned int pos180=575; // ancho de pulso en cuentas para la pocicion 180° void setup() { servos1.begin(); servos2.begin(); servos3.begin(); servos1.setPWMFreq(50); servos2.setPWMFreq(50); servos3.setPWMFreq(50);//frecuecia PWM de 50Hz o T=16,66ms } void setServo(uint8_t n_servo, int angulo) { int duty; duty=map(angulo,0,180,pos0, pos180); servos1.setPWM(n_servo, 0, duty); servos2.setPWM(n_servo, 0, duty); servos3.setPWM(n_servo, 0, duty); } void loop() { setServo(0,0); setServo(16,0); setServo(15,0); delay(2000); setServo(0,30); setServo(16,30); setServo(15,50); delay(2000); }

It doesn't make any mistakes, just the first board with x40 direction, move the servo smoothly, the other two with x41 and x42 directions with the welded pins do not move the servos, turn on all 3 with the red light, maybe it's a mistake in my sketch, but you tell me that it's okay, my sketch publishes it in the previous question for you to see.
