Hello, I’m having trouble controlling my robot. I’ve written the controls. I’ve checked all the wiring connections. I’ve had my program verified as working. My IP settings are correct. My CRIO is imaged. I’m communicating with the robot. The joystick is calibrated and the driver station picks up the inputs from it. However, whenever i try to enable teleop, it simply pulses the motors and then cuts off. It doesn’t respond to any assigned inputs. It worked previously when there were less controllers hooked up to it. (only using jaguars). However, when I try to run them all at once, none of them respond. Please help!
A photo of the powered Digital Sidecar - If all three power lights are not bright green, then only a few motor controllers will be powered.
What are the conditions of the motor controller status lights - solid yellow when enabled and not being driven.
Any error messages on the Driver Station Diagnostics tab?
I looks like the PWM’s are plugged in backwards. They need to get flipped around so the signal (yellow) is facing the inside of the digital sidecar. Also, the sidecar needs to get power from a 12v output on the power distribution board.
Thanks, we got it working. This was just a test dummy for the launcher which isn’t attached to the robot. We didn’t figure to look at the wiring of the actual robot until now. Thank you guys very much for your help. Unfortunately this is my first and last year seeing as how I’m a senior.
