| Feb 22, 2015 at 22:43 | comment | added | Visual Micro | good that proves it is a timer/interrupt issue. What pins are servos and motors connected to? | |
| Feb 22, 2015 at 1:22 | comment | added | Mywiki Witwiki | ok good question. The servos being connected is not the problem. The problem is when there is that 'servo.attach(servo_pin)' in the code. | |
| Feb 22, 2015 at 1:08 | comment | added | Visual Micro | You are right. Prob not a good question. Should have been what happens if you disconnect the power to the servos and the cam. Do the motors run without halting when you know the servos and cam would be working? You could use a debugger or serial messages to tell you when the servos and cam should be working. This test proves if the power is related to the any issue(s) | |
| Feb 22, 2015 at 0:55 | comment | added | Mywiki Witwiki | i dont think i understand your question clearly. the only components directly powered by the arduino board are: Pixy (cmucam5), sonar (HC-SR04), two tower pro sg-90 servos (pan/tilt). | |
| Feb 22, 2015 at 0:46 | comment | added | Visual Micro | okay but let's be clear. you are not causing more than 500ma to be drawn through the Uno voltage regulator because you are going to get erratic and confusing results? | |
| Feb 22, 2015 at 0:27 | comment | added | Mywiki Witwiki | the second sentence is spot on... it happens. If you could provide a solution for the motors stopping while servos are running? | |
