Many thx - am just waiting for a replacement 12v Lipo battery as my last Chinese ebay one gave up the ghost and then I can play with the new drivers and firmware, so Gertrude our Loo-nar rover will roam again!

Many thanks. If I can help with any release candidate code and associated documentation I gladly will; just PM me. It's a great, powerful board that does so much. I'd like to help to make the Python example and documentation a bit clearer so every user can get the most from it out of the box, as it ...

Hi Gertbot users, Wonder if someone can help me please to control Gertbot opendrain and IO pins independently: Using Gerbot I can control the IO pins just fine with bitwise. That's now clear to me. I then got opendrain working to turn on and off some 3W, 700 mA superbright LEDs but I just can’t unde...

Thanks Gert for such a quick response. Three cheers for Toaste's mouth gestures. Will have a play.

Hi Gert, Re GPIO numbering- for sure the numbering in GUI (+manual) and in python test_drivers.py and gertbot.py driver code are inconsistent but my limited reading suggests that in fact the Raspi numbering might in fact break with tradition by using a: 1 2 | <-edge of board 3 4 | <-edge of board 5 ...

Thx Gert,
I can workaround for time being and imagine others will come across this. What's the best way to communicate features if I find them...open forum or PM?
Am happy to provide as much feedback as is helpful.

Many thanks Gert. This helps. I'm scratching my head though on a few points though: CMD_ENDSTOP seems not to be defined in gertbot.py driver so Test 9 and 10 for example crash with: Test set J3 pin mode in board 0 Going to switch pins 1-10 to output (press return) …… Going to switch pins 1-8 to ends...

My Gertbot robot is working well with motors and the excellent low latency mjpg streamer via Python but I'm really stuck on how to set the J3 GPIO Pins in Python and wonder if some kind soul might please help. I'm fine with ordinary Raspi GPIO control but am really stuck with doing the same on the G...
