Hi i'm asking for a big favour here i need a code for the following setup for my seafox rov:
arduino number 1 receives signals from ps2 controller on pins 13, 12, 11 and 10 and a current + voltage sensor on pins 0 and 1. once the signals from the ps2 controller have been decoded they need to be sent by serial to arduino number 2 which takes the signals so it can control 3 esc's (on pins 10, 9 and 6) and 3 relays (on pins 8, 7 and 4) (relays will be controlled with transistors).
Arduino number 2 also sends signals from a lm35 on pin 0 and 4 outputs from a digital compass on pins 4, 5, 6 and 7 which all need to be sent to arduino number 1 then onto a video overlay board as well as the signals from the current + voltage sensor.
esc's 1 and 2 will be forwarded by pushing the right joystick forward
esc's 1 and 2 will be reversed by pushing the right joystick backward
esc 1 will be forwarded by pushing the right joystick left
esc 2 will be forwarded by pushing the right joystick right
esc 3 will be forwarded by pushing the left joystick forward
esc 3 will be reversed by pushing the left joystick backward
relay 1 will be turned on when l1 is pressed and turned off when released
relay 2 will be turned on when r1 is pressed and turned off when released
relay 3 will be turned on when r2 is pressed and pressing r2 again will turn it off
all the readings from the sensors will be sent to the video overlay board
voltage + current sensor: http://www.coolcomponents.co.uk/catalog ... cts_id=433
video overlay board: http://www.coolcomponents.co.uk/catalog ... cts_id=723
digital compass: http://www.zagrosrobotics.com/shop/item.aspx?itemid=551
would really appreciate some help

Re: rov control arduino code
You can try to put in a job on this page http://www.freelancer.com/. There is many people that have arduino experience that can help you. But you have to pay for it.

i have already found someone who can help me on freelancer
Re: rov control arduino code
Hi, how did the arduino coding go with freelancer?
Are you happy with the code and do you mind sharing what the freelance cost was, and maybe the name of your programmer, in case others would like to contact him/her.

Re: rov control arduino code
I can tell my experience with freelancer with a more complex system.
I payed a total of USD 235.
This was for codes for a system with:
- Two analog compas
- 19 switches
- 4 servos
- one adjustable transistor for adjusting light.
- one lcd.
- video overlay with depth and compas direction.
Communication with two mega 2560 cards and one ardumelinove (or something like that) for video overlay.

The programmer from India was a skilled person, the challenge I had was that we had to do a lot of testing since he did not have the correct equipment available. In the end we got everything to work.

I haven't chosen anyone to do my coding as i'm struggling for money lately so I need to find some soon really.
