Jaguars stop turning flywheel motors #6

Closed blakeelias closed 12 years ago

blakeelias commented 12 years ago

The flywheel motors stop moving when the robot is drawing large amounts of current, particularly when turning in high gear.

The following tests were conducted to determine whether or not this was the issue: 1 - hard reboot (power cycle the entire robot) - this rectified the issue 2 - soft reboot (cycle all control signals) - this rectified the issue 3 - isolated power cycle (pull fuse from shooter circuit following shutdown and restore) - this did not rectify the issue.

Attempted fix in fc793256c6c9e486d4c88a84f1289e43c7fecdb3. Need to reproduce the problem and test the fix on a cRIO.

We anticipate this issue will have been resolved with 4c0f2. This solution worked perfectly in a test project on a test robot, but needs to be tested on JoeBot itself before we can confirm.
