Go to Post My suggestion is to first focus in on your drive base. Get it running, and drive it into the ground and see what breaks. Then fix it. Rinse wash and repeat. - Andy A. [more]

Motor Moving While Set To Zero

We have a motor connected to a talon. In our code the Talon should always be set to full speed forwards/backwards or zero/off. Moving the motor forward or backwards works perfectly, but whenever the motor should be set to zero/off, it continues to move backwards slowly. Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

Here is part of the code for reference:
Code:
public class OI {
    public JoystickButton rollersIn;
    
    public OI() {
        rollersIn = new JoystickButton(rotateStick, 1);
        rollersIn.toggleWhenPressed(new RollersInCommand());
    }
Code:
public class  RollersInCommand extends Command {
    public RollersInCommand() {
        requires(Robot.arm);
    }

    protected void initialize() {
        Robot.arm.rollersIn();
    }

    protected void execute() {
    }

    protected boolean isFinished() {
        return false;
    }

    protected void interrupted() {
        Robot.arm.rollersStop();   
    }
}
Code:
public class Arm extends Subsystem {
    SpeedController motor = RobotMap.armmotor;
    
    public void initDefaultCommand() {
    }
    
    public void rollersIn(){
        motor.set(-1.0);
    }
    
    public void rollersOut(){
        motor.set(1.0);
    }
    
    public void rollersStop(){
        motor.set(0.0);
    }
}

What is the LED on the Talon doing when it is moving slowly?

Re: Motor Moving While Set To Zero

Try calibrating your Talon.

The light is slowly flashing red.

Okay. Thank you. I think that this will probably fix it.
