PS2 Robot Control: Establishing Communication?

Hi ,

As for the PS2 controller, we never make it work! I just wanna emphsize that we set it up very carefully following the manual.

First, we checked the battery of PS2, it is good.

Second, we followed the instructions and steps of “PS2 Robot Control: Establishing Communication” in Lynxmotion’s Website to test the PS2. We found it always showed

FF 255 255 255 255 255 255 255 255 255…

no matter whether we pushed the PS2 button or not!

When we turned on the PS2 controller first, followed with that of the robot, we saw the right red-light of the PS2 receiver on the robot kept on flashing, and so did the light on the PS2 controller. However, the robot simply did not respond when we pushed the PS2 buttons, and the outputs of the above-mentioned test modules were always “FF 255 255 255…”.

If we reset the power on PS2 controller, we found that the red light on the PS2 receiver stopped flashing and always lighted up; but still, it did not further response!

so ,what i can do ?

sorry ,the pictures of circuit i don’t know how to update?

thanks in advance!
