"Ya, I was starting to doubt my sanity! :-) Should have done more research on Sparkfuns website. They have added a note on the shield board page now about this issue."
"OK, found problem was the diode in the DIN line. Bypassed with 120K 1/8watt resistor and data was perfect. Sparkfun has some info on this but not on page where xbee shield is."
"Ok, many weeks later, I split the power supply and made sure both xbees and the IMU and computer were set to 57600 baud. The two xbees are talking but the data is not usable. almost all showing as 00 in the hex window. Can't figure out where I am…"
"Yep, and I did that. It works fine. I think the problem may be that I was trying to run both the IMU and the xbee off of the regulator on the IMU board. I noticed it was running warm so I am in the process of splitting the power source. Perhaps the…"
"Can anyone tell me how to connect the 9d0f IMU running the SF9DOF_AHRS software directly too an XBEE. I have tried using the xbee shield using the following connections:
Hi All,I have the 9DOF board running the latest code and am getting the expected output from the serial port. My question is this: Is there a software (windows prefered) program to graphically display the position data from the board for testing…
Hi All,I am working with Steve Eves who last year launched a 36' tall scale Saturn V rocket and in so doing, set a record for the largest model rocket ever launched and safely recovered. Having accomplished that he has now set out to build a 1/10…
