Sorry to come back to this after all these weeks, but we are on the brink of completing this vehicle after hitting some headaches.
The final part I am still stuck on is cutting power to the motor when the vehicle breaches a geofence. As per your advice, I am looking at using a relay module for this which acts as a tool and turns off when it hits a border.
Wonder if anyone can help with this as I am struggling. I’ve built the section controller as per Brian and Arvel’s video and everything works manually; I can turn the relays on and off in AOG. What I had hoped was that, when these were set to green in AOG, they would automatically cut out when they hit the boundary, but they don’t. In fact I am a tad confused by there being three states: red, yellow and green.
Could anyone offer any tips here? I just want the section / relay to cut out when it hits the boundary so that the vehicle will stop if it runs off field. Could anyone advise, please?
