Hi everyone !
I am currently having trouble setting up the integrated solenoid valves. I connected the vacuum pump to air inlet 2, then tried to switch the ROs on and off between (RO1 & RO3) and (RO2 & RO4) through iRProgrammer but there is no success. However, when I connected the robot to the compressed air outlet, the ROs are working just fine on switching on and off.
I am wondering if integrated solenoid valves only work with compressed air or if my vacuum pump wasn't generating enough vacuum pressure to activate the internal solenoid valves? The vacuum pump I am currently using generates 25.5 in.Hg max vacuum.
Also, I have noticed that after running through the robot, the vacuum pressure has cut in half, which is a bit weird.
Thanks for your help in advance !
