Motor missing pulses in a given direction

This is a soft alarm.

Description

No movement detected was detected at all when a motor was commanded to move. The alarm indicates both which motor that has failed (boom, tower, wheels, telescope, arm or nozzle) and in which direction.

Troubleshooting

  • Check that pulses are received from given motor in the detailed view on the Manual screen
  • Check that motor is turning physically
  • If no pulses are recieved and thereby the motor position is not updated even though it is turning, the cable needs to be checked for damages
