We could hook up a second serial connector, but I was wondering if the analog outputs could be used. I'll admit I am mostly a programming guy, so this may be an incredibly stupid question.
I know the analog outputs have a range of 0-255. If we hooked up our on off switch to them, would they return 0 or 255, depending on the switch position, or would they fry our OI?
I'm hoping I can be lazy without killing anything. |
If you look at the IFI OI guide on
www.ifirobotics.com, they show the full pinouts of those ports.
There are on ports 3 and 4 I believe, passthroughs of the 4 buttons on port 1/2. Thusly if you werent using the buttons on your p1 and p2 joys, you could use the passthroughs. I would just be a little worried about accidentally activating them from p1 (ie. driver accidentally clicks the trigger on the drive joy) Though that is easily remedied through a simple "modification" to the joy.
