Auto Calibration Issue - Control Software Freezing

in Questions

Hi all,

Every time I run the auto calibration program, the control software freezes, and the robot does not move at all.

Has anyone happened to meet this situation before?

I can jog all the joints toward both directions, and already checked encoders and switches.

Does anyone have any insights about what might be causing the failure of auto calibration?

I attached a video here for reference:

Many thanks in advance!

Can you verify with a multimeter that you have 3.3v, GND and 5v on the 3 terminal block in the base of the robot? When you run the test limit switches program do any of the switches flicker or change to a value of 1 intermittently?

Hi Chris,

Sorry for late reply, I just got a veru busy first week of school.

I tested the terminal block with a multimeter, I got 3.3v and 5v, so it's working fine.

And those switches are also working properly and outputing ground signals.

I also tried to run the Home.ar4 file directly without auto-calibration, but the log showed errors for all joints. Do you have any insights on what might be causing this issue?

Thanks a lot!
