Yes, Thats a BTS7960 board. I tried it out tonight, ran the motor at about half speed for about half an hour. No detectable heating of the motor or the device. Running on a 350 watt 24 volt switcher. Found I needed to do some work on the hal file as I was only getting encoder B output back into the 5i25 encoder.01. Probably have an is_output being applied to one of the gpio's that is an input on the bob. But by then I was beat, so that is tomorrows troubleshooting job. For a full test I need to dummy up a hone switch for an index on the the motor since its not yet mounted on the BS-1. Need to figure out how to put one on it that is still out of the way and protected. Someplace behind the front disk I think, and detect a passing screw with an ATS-667 should work ok. Just have the find the giddy-up to do it. I'm finding that with a 30% pump, my giddy-up goes away too easy. That and make a couple saddles to put the motor in strong enough it won't get knocked coocoo by the choker straps I handle the BS-1 with as its about 200 lbs with the motor and 160mm 3 jaw mounted.
