Installing Body Lights with Magnetic Door Switches

  • I finally get around to installing the charge bay and data port logic lights into R2 and adding magnetic switches so the lights are only on when the body doors are opened.
    Also, since my last update, I've mounted the secondary electronics board inside R2 after deciding to eliminate the step-down converter on the secondary board and instead simply running a fused 5v power line from my main board. Once I decided against using the voltage divider and VU meter, there just wasn't any reason to run 24v to the secondary board. Simple is better.
    The lighting system I'm using is available from Glynharper at astromech.net, but there are alternatives available from printed-droid.com.

    "The Royal Engineers of Naboo" - nice touch :)

    Thanks for sharing this. I am currently working on the data panel and charge bay. This was a big help.

    Thanks for sharing would it be possible to connect with you. I also want to use Shadow and wanted to see if there was a way you could point me to where exactly I should begin..... Body is finished printing and painted legs are almost done so I would love to start ordering what I will need.

      The best place to begin (and the best way to reach me directly) is through Astromech.net (astromech.net/). Sign up and join, then you can follow the link to my build log from the "About" tab on this channel. From there, you can direct message me, but I will mostly encourage you to explore the subforums there to familiarize yourself with Shadow, Marcduino, and all the other electronic aspects of a droid.
      It IS a lot to learn, and it's very intimidating, but take it one step at a time and you'll get there.
      If you really are starting from nothing, there's a pretty long road ahead of you, and there's a lot more involved than I can really summarize here. Really, to get started, you'll need the Arduino ADK (clones work fine - better to get an ADK clone than try a 2560 with USB host shield), a pair of PS3 move controllers, a Bluetooth dongle, a Marcduino main board (or main + secondary if you're going to use dome servos), a sound board, amplifier and speakers. That will get you connected and to a point where he responds with sounds and lights to control inputs. All of this could run from a bench power supply - sort of like what I had in my earliest videos (sorry, I didn't add narration or details back then).
      After that would come the second part - adding the motors, batteries, etc. that I detailed more recently in my electronics build series.
      Good luck with your build!

    Dome Question. What connection are you using to connect your domes power supply to the cables on the slip ring in the neck? I'm looking for a quick connection so I can just lift on and off the dome? Thanks

    • @jasonsR2D2
      @jasonsR2D2  10 месяцев назад

      I'm using a "Mag Tag" which allows hands-free connection/disconnection of the dome from the body. I discuss this in some detail in my video on connecting the dome - the relevant part is here: ruclips.net/video/mitCITqOb4I/видео.htmlsi=5vzgHClKgDDZgfWX&t=462
      There is a thread on astromech.net with details on how to purchase one. The thread can be found here: astromech.net/forums/showthread.php?33643-MagTag-Magnetic-Dome-Connectors-BC-Approved-Continuous-Various-%28Oct-2017%29-Open

    And can you put this in between the power wire ,like a inline fuse, and the lighting? Would that work?

    • @jasonsR2D2
      @jasonsR2D2  Год назад +1

      Although you could, that would effectively "reboot" the Arduino board each time, which I feel might cause problems long term. The jumpers are there specifically for this purpose - they simply drop the electrical flow to the LEDs, everything else is still running.

    Are you adding those holders to your printables page?

    • @jasonsR2D2
      @jasonsR2D2  Год назад +1

      I hadn't planned on it since they are so simple. I think you can model them in Prusa Slicer, and even a free program like Tinker Cad would be able to do that easily. If you can't find a way, let me know and I can post what I have.

      Done! Here you go: www.printables.com/model/855926-magnetic-proximity-sensor-holder I also updated the description to include the link.
