Hello,
I erased my last message. I think my last message was just reaching out.
Here:
- What are we talking about in regards to the power consumption of the
available wattage?
- 125w
- 150w
- 175w
- etc...
- I am asking b/c some motors will drive that much wattage by themselves.
- I am missing something as usual.
- Would we power the board, AI, separately?
- Are the pins already available on the AI for use without .dts files?
- If not, can we expect a config-pin source to work in the future?
- Or, are we going to have to deal with EEPROM already
"registered?"
I have these subtle questions because I am all in on this idea. I do not
care for the AI handling the GUI. I would rather my chromebook or laptop
handle it.
Can I expect to handle more than three, 100w brushless stepper motors?
Seth
P.S. I will have a million more questions available by the time I post
next. I am being nosey on purpose. I want to know things. I especially want
to know what type of motors I can handle on this Cape. Are people already
handling design, a wiki, and/or status updates on this venture?
