Re: Firmware update 4.1.34 broke speed control function
All settings are correct and verified yes, the PID tunings and all other settings. PWM control functions as expected and encoders are verified. I have reset and re-entered the parameters, and re-tuned the motors as well. It happens if I use the BasionMotion studio, In my 2nd post on this thread I d...

Re: Firmware update 4.1.34 speed function

Firmware update 4.1.34 broke speed control function
Hi, I have a project that I have been using the Roboclaw 2x7a on, and has been running on what I believe was 4.1.33 firmware version (whatever the number is the previous version was). It has been working for quite a few weeks now. I today upgraded to 4.1.34 version and the system no longer works. Sp...

Current Reading
Hi, I'm curious when I ask the RoboClaw for the current from each motor phase what the number reported actually is. Is it the instantaneous current measured at that moment, or some average over a time period, or something else

Home switch State
Hi, I am having issues with being able to query the state of my home switch using the python software given in roboclaw.py . Reading the user manual on page 74 it says that the error code for the home switches is 0x4000 and 0x8000. When I use the function Read Status (from the python library ReadErr...

Re: Problem with Serial communication
The Hub is not attached to a PC when the system powers on. I think my plan is going to be to add a switch on the power of the USB hub that will only turn on when I need to debug the system, so I won't have to worry about this during normal operation

Testing I just did yielded the following result: On Boot of robot: - When USB hub is powered and connected to RoboClaws - Unable to establish serial con...
