Hello,

Could someone tell me what is the difference between the version 1.2 and 1.3 of Eddie robot (or where to find the announcement of the new version).

Thanks

    Hi there,

    Are you referring to version 1.2 and 1.3 of the Eddie Robot Assembly Guide? If so, version 1.3 was updated to include assembly instructions for the blue quadrature encoders. Version 1.2 should be used if using the green position controllers.

    Please let me know if this answers your question.

    Cheers,
    Jessica

    Hello,

    Many thanks for reply.

    Yes I talked about assembly guide. The assembly guide is 1.3 for the 2 first pages, and after it's 1.1 version.
    For encoders, I see only green on both of the assembly guide.

    And it seems that my encoder are black !

    So could you tell me how I'm able to know what is the version I bought ?

    Thanks for reply.

    Yes, we didn't update the photos for the later documentation since we needed to update it quickly.

    I am not sure what encoders you have if they are black, we have not manufactured any black encoders.

    If your encoders look like the ones in this picture, then they are the new quadrature encoders, and you should use version 1.3 of the assembly guide.

    Also, if you could post a picture, that could help identify them.
