Periodic drops in connexion with actuators

Post by ased » Mon Nov 07, 2022 8:09 am

Hey, we have been experiencing a periodic drop in connexion in all actuators. The joint state feedback has small steps appearing due to this drop.
As a result, the robot twitches periodically when the feedback is used in the high level control.
We are using direct ethernet connexion with a linux laptop.

Any idea why this might be happening?

Many thanks :)

Hi! Networking issues can be caused by a number of reasons, ranging from issues on the computer side to faulty Ethernet ports or bad cables.

If you can take a log file in Scope and send it to us via Email (support@hebirobotics.com) we can likely narrow it down and help you with the debugging.
