Here's this week's point of confusion https://www.robot-forum.com/robotforum/Smi…m/kopfkratz.gif
Robot: HP5
Controller: NXC100
The sequence of events is a follows:
1) Robot is running in REMOTE mode. 40044 EXT START and 40045 EXT SERVO ON are ON.
2) I press the E-STOP on the front of the PP. All stops. So far so good.
3) I reset the E-STOP. PP is still in REMOTE mode at this stage.
4) I can still see the 40045 EXT SERVO ON signal (and 40044) BUT there is NO servo light on the PP and the specific output 50073 SERVO ON is OFF. I should mention that the signal 40057 PROHIBIT IO is OFF.
Can somebody tell me why the servo power does not come on??
Finally..
5) I turn the mode selection switch to PLAY, wait a few seconds for the hell of it, then turn the switch back to REMOTE. Suddenly Servos come on, 50073 and 50070 both switch on and all is fine.
What the??
Thanks
