Running Script Stuck In A Loop

Hi. I'm looking for a little help. I have a script I just wrote, but when it executes It doesn't fully run and the audio file the script has gets stuck in a loop and I have do disconnect the EZ-B's power to get it to stop. Closing ARC doesn't stop the loop. What could be causing this?

Cheers.

@Rich.

Have you had a chance to have a look at my project I emailed you yet? I just wanted to mention if you haven't had a chance yet, while having a play around with my project last night I deleated the "round eye blink" action from the RGB animator and it has solved the problem of freezing the EZ-B. So I'd love to know what was wrong with that action to have caused that. Im still getting a little bleed through from other actions I have, not as bad but still a little annoying.

No I hadn't had chance with being away at the weekend and coming home to a broken boiler (and therefore no heating or hot water).

Hey dude. I'm looking to mark this thread as resolved. Just wondering if you had a chance to look at the project I emailed you?

Hello

Please can you help me. I see this thread was not marked as resolved. I am experiencing the same problem. I am running the JD example and then running the dance routine : "Haunt me". This worked for the last week. But , now, I am getting the same problem the user mentioned in the beginning on the thread. The script is stuck in a loop. And I have to turn off my JD robot. An as the user mentioned : "funny thing it worked a couple of days ago". I have checked my system and there is no programs running in the background and there is no "bloatware". I have also fully charged my Robot. I am satisfied that my JD robot is working on other examples. Many thanks, Ian

I found out what my problem was but forgot to mention it here. My problem was due to a faulty i2c wire that was causing the EZ-B to freeze (constant red light illuminates). I replaced the ribbon cable at it worked fine after that. The slightest little problem and the i2c port won't play nice. Try reseating the ribbon cable at both ends of the connection and thy again. If you still have problems, try replacing the cable.

Many , many thanks Steve , I reseated the ribbon cable and all is working as expected. The reason why the ribbon cable came loose was because I bought some more spiral wrap this weekend and tidied up the cabling but it seems I was not careful enough and the i2c wire was probably not loose. Thanks for your reply, which is much appreciated. Regards Ian.
