voltage reading

Currently we aren't getting a voltage reading at the driver station. We don't have a clue on how to do this. Can anyone provide any advice?

Re: voltage reading

I'm assuming you're talking about battery voltage.

On the analog module breakout, there is a 3 pin male header outside of the blue plastic. You must insert a 2-pin 0.1" molex connector (the ones used for the Digital Side Car servo headers work fine) across the outer 2 pins of that header. You will not get battery voltage unless you jump these two pins.

Re: voltage reading

You also must wire 12 volts into the power connector on top of the analog breakout module.
