This board receives instructions from either a CBL2, a LabPro or
(with an adapter cable) an original CBL. The board has two 595 “shift
registers” (each
providing 8 bits of on-board memory) and two
EDE1200 stepper controllers that can keep a stepper motor moving without
the need for constant input.
The board provides substantial output capabilities
for the robot, including 2 stepper motors for
motion,
up to
4
servo motors
for “arms," and 2 programmable 12-V
outputs for solenoids, buzzers, lights or other devices. It also has
a power output, to allow easy connections to the Motor
Controller for those desiring additional capabilities through the
LabPro's second digital output.
