Re: Arduino and Omega
Would it be possible to port arduino sketches to the omega onion 2?

here is a basic idea on how i would like it to operate.
I will make the actual models on the weekend. Its basically like your board, the only difference is the daisy chain, and the there is only 1 power input. The omega will receive power from the servo board.

Im currently at work. I make CAD models and i'll make a prototype (board)of and basic drawing (two connected objects)of what i'm thinking of. its 10am here and at 11:30 i'll create it real quick to give you a better understanding.

@Ruslan-Baryshnikov247
I would like help to know how to accomplish this. I do understand circuit diagrams. I just never made one to be manufactured because I don't have a clear understanding on certain components needed for the board. I didn't think it could be done because it said "Note: You may only have one PWM Expansion stacked onto an Omega at a time."
I was looking toward a Mini Maestro 24-Channel USB Servo Controller(https://www.pololu.com/product/1357). I just need to add a logic converter because the Maestro runs on 5v logic high. I was also going to power the omega from it because it has a 5v output and just step down the voltage. but I still unsure on what to do.
This is what i'm trying to do.
So picture this you have two spiders that are connected and are both ran from one omega(master) and another(slave). However, when they are detached at logic level the second computer controls the motors. So i need on computer to be a Master and the other to be a slave until the disconnect both then become master computer.

If it is not possible then how could I use two omega 2 to communicate each other of motor positions.

Im trying to do the hexapod project and I saw this and thought how was it possible when only 16 is supported.
