Hi,
We have been using the servo controller to control 8 servos. We ran the servos to set positions while varying the speed and acceleration limit setting (5-255 for both, incrementing by 5).
At specific combinations of speed and acceleration settings, the servo could not reach the set position and just jerked back and forth around the target. The following table lists the specific range combinations of speed/acc settings which don’t allow the servo to reach its target.
Speed Incompatible Accelerations
20 40-50
25 50-78
45 90-112
50 100-255
55 110-168
70 140-175
100 200-255
120 240-255
125 250-255
We also have the problem at faster speeds where the servo will jerk close to the set position, but still reach the target.
Actions to try and resolve the issue:
- using alternative servos
- changing servos around
- not powering the servos (observing through Status window in Maestro Control Centre)
- removed servos altogether (observing through Status window)
None of this worked.
Another thing we tried was to extend the Min-Max range in Channel Settings. This resolved the issue for the specific speed/acc combinations listed above, however it introduced a new range of combinations which are incompatible.
We want to be able to use the full range of speed and acceleration combinations for ease of coding.
Any suggestions on how we can resolve this issue?
