Hey guys, Something very strange is happening over here...I just cannot create a new project. Once I go to file/new/new project and add a servo I cannot use this newly created servo! I can center it once or move it once, but then it stops responding!
The EZ-B still works a is connected to the Wifi
I installed the latest version of ARC
If I open an old project it all works normal, I can also add new servos to other ports and delete existing ones and address freshly created servo movement panels to those same ports without any problem!
So I can use ARC, no big deal...I just have to open old projects, delete all the stuff that I do not need and it all works fine.
But it kind of bugs me...has anyone ever experienced something like this before? confused
The servo works fine and is responding, I tried different servos already!
No i2c devices are hooked up to the EZ-B!
I noticed after loading the JD default scene, I could not access the EZ-B and had to put in my Wifi network key once more to make it work!
When I open the JD default scene my servo moves one time and then stops responding, the light on the EZ-B turns to a steady red!
The light staying red means there is an i2c communication error - there is a control that is attempting to use an i2c device which is not there. Post your PWM_Arm.EZB project and i'll take a look at it.
OK, cool...hope it will bring some light to this weird scenario!
PWM_Arm.EZB
The project works fine. Are you certain this is not power related? I can see in the log files that the project keeps disconnecting on it's own. And the red led could still mean the brownout.
Also - you have the PWM set to use PORT D0 which is also being used by "Horizontal servo 2". Using the PWM control with a servo connected will attempt to move the servo into a position outside of the physical range - which will strain the servo and either burn it out or brown out the power supply.
The problem is not really within the project, this works all fine..it is just if I open a new project that I cannot setup a new servo! I could also try another project without PWM to see if it makes any difference!
This project also just works fine!
Test_EZ-B_disco.EZB
But if I try to make a new project I cannot add any servos that will work! The Horizontal servo within this project was newly added and works, if I create a new project and add a servo it does not work...
My Power Supply is a switching one with fixed 5V and 20A
I cannot reproduce the issue - perhaps it's a network problem?
I will try to restart my router and my PC, and will check if the problem persists! Very strange....
I will do this tomorrow, it's getting a bit late here in Germany!
