ergoCub 1.3 S/N:002

Request/Failure description

During IROS we noticed the following errors:

18.310346 <ERROR> from BOARD 10.0.1.2 (left_arm-eb2-j0_1) time=4892s 313m 104u :  SYS: EOtheCANservice could not tx frames on CAN bus. CanPort=CAN2. Size of fifo is 64"
18.310474 <ERROR> from BOARD 10.0.1.2 (left_arm-eb2-j0_1) time=4892s 316m 728u :  SYS: EOtheCANservice could not add a CAN frame in tx fifo. CanPort=CAN2 Frame.ID=514, Frame.Size=2 Frame.Data=0x107
18.310483 <ERROR> from BOARD 10.0.1.2 (left_arm-eb2-j0_1) time=4892s 317m 27u :  SYS: EOtheCANservice could not add a CAN frame in tx fifo. CanPort=CAN2 Frame.ID=525, Frame.Size=2 Frame.Data=0x35

Detailed context

The robot was still functional, but this might indicate an issue on the CAN termination. Unfortunately, we don't have the full log.

[valegagge]

As so far as I remember the problem was due to a missing termination on the CAN. as you can see from the log lines the FW could not add any CAN message, therefore this means that the transmission queue is full, so it seems that the CAN BUS is not operative and the problem is not strictly related to the battery pack since on the same bus there is also the FT sensor.

@MSECode / @AntonioConsilvio / @AntonioAzocar could you please tell me if I'm remembering well?

thanks
