Re: Broken CRio
Before you go off thinking the Crio is toast, check the wires. As Russ and Erik have posted many times, the Wago connectors need a minimum of wire stripped for the contact to be effective. It may look like it is inserted but you may not have electrical contact. Also, if there is any stray strands of wire that cross over to the opposite wiring block, you may be shorting out the wiring and tripping the breaker. This can occur at either end. Use a meter and be sure. Remember that the Crio power supply is a 24 volt supply contained within the PD. It will run down to about 5 volts on the main battery, so be sure to use a charged battery when running the robot.
