REV Robotics Expansion Hub

Το REV Robotics Expansion Hub είναι ένας προσιτός ελεγκτής υλικού που μπορεί να επικοινωνήσει με οποιονδήποτε υπολογιστή, συμπεριλαμβανομένων των tablet / τηλεφώνων Android και του REV Robotics Control Hub. Το Expansion Hub είναι γεμάτο με επιλογές διεπαφής υλικού για ενεργοποίηση κινητήρων κίνησης και σερβοκινητήρες, διασύνδεση με αισθητήρες και επικοινωνία με άλλες συσκευές μέσω διαφόρων επιλογών πρωτοκόλλου.

Το Expansion Hub ενσωματώνει προστασία ESD και αντίστροφης πολικότητας και έχει σχεδιαστεί για να αντέχει στις δυσκολίες χρήσης στην τάξη ή στον αγωνιστικό χώρο του FTC. Εκτός από τα ενσωματωμένα προστατευτικά, το Expansion Hub διαθέτει επίσης συνδετήρες κλειδώματος και κλειδώματος για την αποφυγή προβλημάτων σύνδεσης και είναι πλήρως αναβαθμίσιμο, ώστε το υλικό σας να μπορεί πάντα να εκτελεί το πιο ενημερωμένο υλικολογισμικό.

REV HUB INTERFACE SOFTWARE

The REV Hub Interface is a beta piece of software which allows for direct connection to your REV Expansion Hub and its peripherals from your Windows PC.

This interface provides a method for teams to prototype with motors, servos, and sensors in a way that is faster and easier than setting up an entire robot control system. It is also a valuable troubleshooting tool that can help isolate the cause of an issue and determine if it is electrical or software related. The Expansion Hub firmware can also be updated through this interface in addition to the Robot Controller Application.

Download and Installation Instructions can be found here: REV Hub Interface Software Download and Installation Instructions
