Sabertooth 2X25
Operating mode quick reference chart All options are set via the switches
Analog control, linear, independent:
a 0V to 5V analog input is connected to
terminals S1 and S2. 0V is full reverse,
5V is full forward, 2.5V is stop.
Microcontroller pulses, independent
linear control:
An R/C servo signal is
connected to terminals S1 and S2. A
1000us – 2000us pulse controls speed
and direction. 1500us is stop.
Radio control, differential drive,
exponential:
An R/C servo signal is
connected to terminals S1 and S2. The
Sabertooth will autocalibrate the center
and endpoints of the signal.
Simplified Serial, 38400 Baud:
A
TTL level 8N1 serial data stream is
connected to terminal S1. Control is
with single byte commands.
Motor 1: 1 is full reverse, 64 is stop and
127 is full forward.
Motor 2: 128 is full reverse, 192 is stop
and 255 is full forward.
Packetized Serial, address 128:
A
TTL level 8N1 serial data stream is
connected to terminal S1. Control is via
a multi-byte packet.
Lithium cutoff option:
When switch 3
is in the down position (in any
operating mode) the Sabertooth will
shut down at 3.0V per cell. This
protects lithium batteries from damage.
