Go to Post Students design and build it, the engineers/mentors are there to guide us when we stray off the path. A great way to learn, a great way to mentor, a great way to grow. - chellyzee93 [more]

What part number motor are you referring to?

What's the part number of the encoder?

sometimes, despite the shaft moving, we won't get any signals for a few seconds.
How do you know you're not getting a signal from the encoder? Is that a direct1 observation, or a conclusion based on indirect2 evidence?


1 e.g. measuring the encoder signal with an oscilloscope
2 e.g. the arm went crazy, so it must mean the encoder isn't providing a signal.
