Industrial Joystick Controlled Dual RC
Servo Motor Driver Interface Board Module
is an Original Manufacturing Engineering (OEM) industrial and
commercial rated high performance, high efficiency
board that
utilizes dual potentiometers (POT) center-type Joystick to control and drive both, RC
Servos, direction,
and angle.
Utilized miniature resistive
joysticks (optional) to control dual servo motors-- Typical
applications include CCTV (pan and tilt), robotics, electric
wheelchairs, go-cart and measurement systems.
The Joystick Controlled Dual
RC
Servo Motors Driver & Control Interface Board Module
power of 4 to 6VDC. An additional power input allows injection
of higher voltage to RC SERVO 2 output, i.e. 7.4VDC, 12VDC etc.
The Joystick RC-Servo Motor Driver & Control Interface Board
Module produces the required PWM multiplexing signals at 50 Hz
of PWM main frequency (period of 20ms) for controlling the RC
Servo motors. The PWM joystick is used for controlling the
motors positions or directions. The positions and directions are
direct result of the joystick's potentiometers (POTs, Pots)
positions. The joystick driver board is designed to support
both, Industrial high quality RC Servo motors that require 2000
levels corresponding to 0-5VDC POT’s position and/or 255 levels
standard of low quality RC Servo motors.
Please be advised that the exact PWM width is depending on the
servo motor types and brands. Let our OEM engineer’s custom
“tailor” the Servo Motor Driver to meet your application
requirements and needs.
Few models are available utilizing
different micro processors. Remote
dual potentiometers joystic
connected via
via wires and conveniently front mounted locking connectors.
The board also contains indication LED for Power
On (PWR ON) and Microcontroller Self Testing (MST). The LED will
blink "like HEART BEAT" once every second, indicating all of the
board functions are running and powered correctly.

The board offers the features
needed for professional setting Radio Control (RC) servo motors
position as a direct function of joystick's
potentiometer
movement.
Mounting is easy via four 0.156"
mounting holes using 6-32 screws and wire (optional) via
convenient conventional industrial standards locking connectors.
