Build:
Gen2 clawbot build… no claw/ or claw motor installed… just the 4 bar lift with motor
Problem:
When arm is raised up … no commands to the motor… no velocity … no weight on end of arm (no claw or motor)… yet there is still a full load of current going to the motor…
Scenario:
had a student driving the bot to test new build and gen2 equip, bell rang… student left robot on with arm in raised position… I went to restroom and when I came back (5 mins) I could smell something burning/smoking… the motor was too hot to touch
Program running:
Standard drive program
Why is there a full load of current going to this motor when there is no commands or weight on the arm? Does anyone know if the default drive program uses “hold” commands for port 10?
