I have a motor that just spins and spins at a somewhat slow speed. Tried different motor ports. Tried calibrating the VexNET joystick, but this motor just spins slowly.
Based on a search, here are some add’l details:
2 Wire 393 Motor with Motor Controller 29 in place.
Occurs on all motor ports, I think, but I can double check. 2 and 5 definitely.
Using Cortex with VexNET Joystick
What else can I try to get this motor to be still when the joystick is not touched?
Thanks,
Todd
Hello Todd,
I have seen this issue many times before; however, the issue is always solved by calibrating the joystick.
I would recommend you to do the following:
-Calibrate joystick again following instructions listed on the website: https://vexforum.com/wiki/index.php/VEXnet_Joystick
-Download default code on CORTEX, you can use the default code from easyC or the code from the VEXnet upgrade Utility V 1.2.3 (send an email to [email protected] if you need help downloading default code)
-Try a different motor, just to isolate the problem between motor or CORTEX.
Hope this helps Todd.
