Hello
Could someone please tell me where I can get the latest datasheet for rev C of the ARC32 board. The document that is listed with the board is showing the old jumper location and not showing the new jumpers for the pins beside the voltage inputs.
It would help setting up this board if the data would be updated at the same time of the release. I have no idea what other changes have been implemented form Rev B to rev C.
Thanks

This information needs to come from Basic Micro. They are not very good at keeping their documents up to date. This document is out of date, as well as the Roboclaw, Syntax manual, …
I personally do not have any of these updated boards so I am probably not much help. Some of the things that I believe that have changed since my version 1 boards, include: new jumpers to connect VS1/VS2/VL. Which on some of my robots would be very nice to have. They have also moved where the jumper/shunts are to choose what voltages go to the servo pins. I also believe they may have changed what pins are used for what in either Aux1 or Aux2…

Hi Kurte,
Thanks for the information. Yes I went to the BasicMicro site and asked the same question.
I used my meter to look at the jumpers and I think I have them fiqured out.
It would be nice for BasicMicro to keep up their documentation so new users of these boards can get them up and running.
I find it really makes a difference for student learning if they can follow the manuals with examples for working on their projects.
Thanks
Hans
The new rev ARC-32 boards had the Vcc/Vs jumpers and the servo headers moved around a bit to make it easier to build the boards. The VL/VS jumper was added because we ended up with enough room to do it. It was a request from a long time ago. The datasheet is being updated but we are a small company and things take time.
Hmm, I guess I failed to see this topic, I created another one, I would really appreciate an updated datasheet of the ARC-32 as well, or if you can quickly tell me where I can connect a hardware RX/TX serial to the SSC-32, that would be enough for me to go with for now…
