PowerTech Classic Controller

Control 4 dc motors through classic Bluetooth and achieve robot control with ease!

Users of "PowerTech Competition" could try for reference.

Note: This program runs with classic Bluetooth, but due to the variety of vendors, please report if the smart device is unable to operate.

Tutorial:

=====Using designated receiver=====

You could find references to the designated receiver from "PowerTech Competition" related website

http://twpowertech.com

When using the designated receiver, you only need to plug the power(DC 3V~6V) into the power connector(3 pins), and hook dc motors to the rest of the controlling connectors(2 pins). After Bluetooth pairing through smart devices, you will be able to control robots that you designed!

Step 1: Complete the circuit connection.

Step 2: Bluetooth pairing through the setting console of the smart device. Password should be 1234 if needed.

Step 3: Execute this program. If Bluetooth is not already turned on, click "開啟" from the program.

Step 4: Click "列出已配對裝置" and choose the corresponding Bluetooth module for pairing from the list.

Step 5: The next control page will have 8 buttons. Each pair arranged side-by-side and with arrow pointing different directions is used to control the rotation in both directions for a single dc motor.

Step 6: Enjoy controlling your robot!

=============================

=====Using home-made receiver=====

* If you are using Arduino or other micro-controllers for the home-made receiver, please choose Bluetooth 4.0 compatible modules.

Step 1: Read the receiving byte from the Bluetooth module with Arduino or other micro-controllers, and split that into 8 bits. Each sequential pair represents the controlling signals of one dc motor, namely the first and second bits control the first motor, the third and fourth bits control the second, etc. Send the resulting signals to the controlling units of each motor.

Step 2: Same as using designated receiver.

Step 3: Same as using designated receiver.

Step 4: Same as using designated receiver.

Step 5: Same as using designated receiver.

Step 6: Enjoy controlling your robot!
