Hello,
I just receive Robo-Tank board and facing an issue to control DC ports
I have a Raspberry PI 2 board with Raspbian installed following the Software Installation Manual document
I successfully connect the temperature sensor and PH probe and can see data.
But when I trying to control DC ports I get nothing
When I checking voltage I didn't get 12 volts on the port
I tried to take pin +12v from the DC port and GND from the Grounds connector - I can see 12v
It looks like the ports connected to pca9685 not responding
When I checking the I2C bus everything looks OK:
This is my configuration in Reef-Pi software:
PCA9685 Driver:
configured on Address:64 Frequency: 800
DC Port 4:
configured as Outlets on Pin 12
In Reef-Pi I configured a new Equipment and connected it on Port: DC Port 4
On/OF is not responding
I will be appreciated for your help to understand what I doing wrong
Thanks in Advance
