Re: Watchdog and Communication Issue
The connection is intermittent at best, it fully loses connection about every 30 seconds, but both the robot code and communications LED on our laptop flickers every ~.5seconds. They don’t turn off and on in unison; it seems random as far as I can tell. This is not always the case: sometimes the connection can be perfect for a while (max 2 minutes), but this is rare. I have not found any correlation between location and connection. The robot jerks from full speed to stop at the same time the communications LED turns off. There isn’t any noticeable lag in the communication, it just isn’t sending any directions when the communication breaks off. The power converter is connected to 30amp max section of the PD, and we are using a 20amp breaker. We tried connecting the D-Link to a wall socket and this didn’t change the problem, I don’t think it’s a power issue.
