Reoccuring high current on Motor 2 channel
Posted: Thu Feb 06, 2020 12:59 am
Hi,
we have a problem with some of our Roboclaws. Initially we expected some component damage (power supply, motors, Roboclaw...).
However in the meantime the behavior is very strange.
What we see is, that we get an over current warning on Motor 2. We changed channels, replaced motors and the Roboclaw.
Running Motion Studio, it seems the over current mainly occurs when we run the motor very slow. We also connected a brand new motor, without any load...
Background:
Recently we had to upgrade to Firmware 4.34 from 4.33 as we wanted to include a speed error limit trigger (not done yet).
We run two Roboclaws in serial. However, I also tried them with Motion Studio while being disconnected (still setup to multi-mode).
Questions:
1. Is there anything that could cause an over current behaviour by software?
2. Did anyone observe current warnings with Firmware 4.34?
3. Did anyone had reoccuring current warnings on Motor Channel 2?
