Re: Issue: Not receiving encoder updates after calling SpeedAccelDeccelPosition function in Arduino Library
For other customers information:
After talking with the customer for a while he determined the problem was limited to using the roboclaw.SpeedAccelDeccelPositionM1M2 command.
Using roboclaw.SpeedAccelDeccelPositionM1 and roboclaw.SpeedAccelDeccelPositionM2 in sequence worked as expected.
Also, this does not appear to be a Roboclaw problem(resetting the ESP gets things working again without touching the Roboclaw). Since the underlying code is identical for the 3 commands this appears to be a buffering limit problem with hardware serial. Until I can dig into this further please use the separate SpeedAccelDeccelPositionMX commands.
