Re: Robot losing and regaining drive power
We experienced a similar issue at Waterloo, when ever there was load on the motors even load from driving straight, the jaguars would have a vbus error. They were reporting 6 volts input and at 6 volts they shut off as a safety feature. Even though the input voltage was more like 8 or 9 volts (the battery was fully charged) for whatever reason. After the 3.5 seconds, they would shut off again. Our current draw was well within spec. A Texas Instruments employee who works with the jagurs helped us diagnose the issue and after a hour or so of head scratching, recommended we use victors. We were using a 4 motor drive train, 2 motors /cimple box with 3 wheels per side.
