Re: IonStudio crashes when I try Autotune
1. IonStudio is deprecated. Do not use it.
2. The crashing is most likely because the USB port is getting glitched by noise. Windows has no error handling for USB. If the USB fails, Motion Studio will crash. At a minimum I recommend using a USB cable with a ferrite choke(barrel shape near the end nearest the Roboclaw). That helps sometimes. The next step up is to use a USB isolation adapter like this one: https://www.amazon.com/SMAKN-Isolator-D ... 619&sr=8-6
There are others available but they all use the same chip as far as I can tell. I specifically have this one and it work well. Its not perfect but it will reduce USB problems drastically.
