I am still in Alaska, and things have been crazy.
My daughter is finally getting here spinal stimulator implant back in Dec 15th.... so things may be getting be3tter.
Preparing for the drive down south with a large dog that needs more walking than I can give, led me to a strange use for a
segeay mini pro that I had the chance to buy at a good price.
have turned into a "Mule" for a wheelchair.
I will post amore on it later.... (If I find the time.)
I basically have it working, but do not like the control stick that I came up with.
It turns out that the controller is hall effect sensors.... for both the right and left and forward and back motions. I have the specs, I know that it is a 5 volt supply on the connector and I think that the voltage is 2.5 mid range, but the high end is not quight 4. I have the spec someplace.
I am pretty sure all I need is a joy stick that will give a 2.5 volt neutral position and I can rewire the Segway to a joy stick.
From previous dumpster diving, I have a Perry Giles Pilot D49637/8a joy stick with the 2 pig tails at the end.
I hope that I can tap into the joy stick and get to the joy stick wires without tearing the whole thing apart.
I have a few questions:
1) Does anyone have the pin out for the joy stick?
2) There is a program port....... can I program the joy stick itself, or is the program port really passing through the joy stick to the controller?
3) If I can program the joy stick, can someone point me the wiring cable I would need. It looks like a 2 wire jack similar to a microphone cord.
Thanks again.
I know I drip in here once in a while with strange requests. I always appreciate the support.
