Operations
The PMB5010 Robot Multimedia Controller is designed to be running as part of the WiRobot system. The
hardware preparation when using PMB5010 is just simply connecting the relevant peripheral modules to the
relevant connectors on the PMB5010 board and setting the proper jumper configurations. Lower device-level
operations are handled by the firmware embedded in PMS5010 controller. High level programs running on PC or
other processors are virtually communicating with the PMB5010 firmware using either WiRobot SDK
Component and supplied WiRobot Gateway program or packet-level commands. Please refer to the WiRobot
SDK API Reference Manual for using WiRobot SDK and WiRobot Communication Protocol for using packet-
level commands.

PMB5010 Power Supplies
Up to two power supplies can be connected to the PMB5010 board supporting board system circuits (System
Power Supply) and Parallel Expansion Module (Expansion Power Supply) (reserved) respectively. These power
supplies can be connected to the board either through the screw terminals or the power jacks. Near each screw
terminal, there are two connector ports for connecting power switches or emergency buttons. By default, these
two ports are connectors together. If the power switches are needed, you could place a switch for each
connector port.
