Re: Robot Controller reset issue when pwm value changes
I am clearing the flag, regularly it has all happy green lights. I took out the part in my auton what changed the pwm's and kept the geartooth in, and I manually moved the wheel to see if I was getting anything. I still wasnt getting anything on the geartooth but it was not resetting.
The program gets on the thing fine, maybe I have to put the master code on it again, I shall try that Monday when I get back to school as well as the new battery, although I tested that and it said I had 12v coming out of it.
The reason I say it is resetting is when I do change the pwm the lights just flash a lot, and my terminal has that standard startup message <IFI Initialized...>. The flashes on the controller go between what it looks like when you press reset and when they are all green. I do get a couple of printf's before it resets, but only sometimes and only a couple.
I will give these suggestions a try on Monday when I get back to school. Thank you
