Electronic Fabrication, Gestalt Board

we prepared FabNet board initially and suyog milled this board and soldered colored USB cable, the 4*2 connectors and the Power supply Connector.I also need Power supply output 12 Volt and Current rating 5A

Fab Net Board

Power supply with above rating connected to high terminal of the Fab Net board(ignore the LOW).

Fab Net Board

Note: See the VCC and GND are connected Perfectly.

Now from Fab Net board make connection on the Gestalt board.Here we faced problem because Fab Net board connectors are 4*2 and on gestalt board there is 5*2 connector so here we could not use the ribbon connector directly. We used the female burge strip to make this connection

Fab Net Board and Gestalt board connection

Here exactly opposite to the 5*2 connector there is 4 pin white connector- we connected this white pin connector to the motor which we have fixed to the mechanical assembly. Following drawing Shows how to connect the fabNet board and the gestalt board to Stepper motor with power supply

Single Node

Following Figure shows actual setup

Actual Single Node tested

As shown in above figure we prepare electronics and mechanical setup. Now We downloaded Gestalt and cloned it in Document folder. From htmaa folder we got example program which is written in Python Language.As We made all connection ready.Switched ON the power supply and intially executed the program as it is. we loaded the program on gestalt board. intially the Pink LED will blink and press the switch on gstalt board.now motor is rotating in x Direction i.e Linear motion.and We prepared same setup for two motors

xy_plotter Connection.

Following Figure shows actual setup

ActualXy plotter assembly

In the programing we tried original program from examples and later we modified few lines to vary speed, distance and the angle.That was specified in velocity, mm and Degree respectively.
