Mow motor have own driver and i can't find wiring description, so i remove the driver and use a ZS-X11H instead

Command use 2 button :
RED one to power ON the PCB
Green one to start mowing , after pushing it you have 10 second to close the cover and mowing start, open the cover to stop mowing.
Oled screen is also locate under a transparent plastic sheet to keep the chassis waterproof.

Are all those mower you have, installed on your lawn with stations?
Do you follow the openmower project? Some guys there are reverse engineering yardforce mainboards.

Not all on my lawn (only 3 of them).

Do you follow the openmower project? Some guys there are reverse engineering yardforce mainboards.

I see the openmower project on youtube , but it's a full new PCB and i did not see the mainboard reverse engineering ?
Maybe i miss something ?
 
Its in their discord group.
As far as i know the mowgli project can already use the classic500 mainboard for openmower
 
I also found the Openmower PCB quite interesting and wrote to him, but unfortunately received no reply.
 
Very nice, I wonder how much space is in such a case in vain to the matrix.
I am glad that the PCB's work as they should. A professional developer would probably pull his hair out :)
