Setup:
Servo controller attached to verdex BTUART (ttyS1, 9600 baud, 3.3v etc), powered by tap taken from verdex 5vdc wall supply input
Symptom:
Servo controler powers up corectly then enters error state on first full command, green led indicating line activity is “feeble”.
Have tested:
-
Servo controler using pololu usb to serial bridge (ttyUSB0, 9600 baud, 3.3v etc), works no problem,
green led indicating line activity is “stronger”. -
Verdex BTUART using pololu usb to serial bridge (ttyUSB0, 9600 baud, 3.3v etc), works no problem.
I suspect a weak signal drive from the verdex BTUART (insufficent for 5vcc servo controler), but lack the test gear to confirm.
Does anyone have any experience with this pairing? or know why the servo controler works for one nominaly 3.3v input but not the other?
