franktate is an unknown quantity at this point
Re: Trying to read current from the PDP

It is a CIM motor driving nothing. So it could be that there's simply not enough draw to register, and I can believe that. I don't have access to it right now, but once I do, I'll put a load on the motor and also try moving the leads to a different channel.

Thanks a lot for the reply!

Re: Trying to read current from the PDP

It does work now, mainly. Putting a load on the motor (with a finger) does get some different values returned. We just do still have some values coming from channels that aren't used. Oh well. This is just the test rig. Once we're on the robot, we'll be able to look at the data and throw out erroneous values (hopefully).

Thanks for your help.

Frank
