Shoulder absolute encoder inconsistency #35

Closed BrightLaw9 closed 1 year ago

BrightLaw9 commented 1 year ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. The absolute encoder on the shoulder experiences a +/- 10 fluctuation at times during use. Figure out the root cause why.

Describe the solution you'd like Find issue so we don't have to reconfigure all the time.

Some possible checks:

  1. Perform a consistency check on the shoulder encoder roboRIO 5V Rail supply using WPILib's RobotController.getVoltage5V()
  2. Pay attention to shoulder encoder mount when rotating (if slipping)
  3. Others?

Describe alternatives you've considered Limit switch type config like arm? Rotate to starting -90?

Additional context May need to collaborate with design and build if the problem has to do with mount.

Changed encoder input variable name but other than that nothing. Should work unless for some imports/name changes left forgotten. Probably fine.
