NOTE: If you have new MARRtino Motor Board 2019 (see below), connections for motors and sonars is simplified as shown in the images below. In this case, please skip instructions in the video and refer to the figures below.
The next sections contain information about electric connections:
Motor Encoders -> Arduino control board
Motor control -> Motor shield
Power switch (mammoth)
Sonar
Motor Encoders -> Arduino control board
Motor Encoders -> Arduino control board
Motor encoders must be connected to Arduino Control Board as specified below.
Note: these connections are not needed for MARRtino Motor shield 2019
Motors (encoders) - Arduino Control Board
Left Motor yellow - pin 52
Left Motor white - pin 53
Left Motor blue - +5V
Left Motor green - GND
Right Motor yellow - pin 50
Right Motor white - pin 51
Right Motor blue - +5V
Right Motor green - GND
Motor control -> Motor shield
Motor control -> Motor shield
Four Motor shields models are supported:
1. MARRtino Motor Board 2019
2. Velleman PKA03
3. Arduino Motor Board
4. L298N
The first 3 can be mounted directly on the Arduino board.

Connections between electric mammoth and MARRtino devices.
If voltage display has three wires, connect the black one to ground and the other two wires together as shown in the image.
SONARS
SONARS
1. MARRtino Motor shield 2019
1. MARRtino Motor shield 2019
Connect the 4 sonar wires to the board with Ground on the bottom side as shown in the figure below.
The position of the sonars should be: 1 front, 2 right, 3 back, 4 left.
2. Other boards
2. Other boards
Connect sonar wires to Arduino board through the breadboard, as shown in the figure.
