AL5D Question

Hi
We are putting together the 1st AL5D arm with med. duty wrist motion and we have the following problem.

When ever we plug in the HS-755HB servo into port 2 the arm will not operate properly and just vibrates when any servo is activated.
We have tried the following

Tried putting the servo in another port and it still does not work when using the servo sequencing software.

Put another servo into that port and things work fine.

If I only plug in the HS-755HB and nothing else then it will move. but with any other servo plugged in then nothing works.

I am thinking that the servo is bad out of the box.

We do we go from here???

Thanks

Can you plug in all servos EXCEPT the 805BB (shoulder servo) and tell us what happens?

I will try that and see what happens.

I will reply after lunch.

Hi

I plugged in all servos except for the 805BB and the arm seems to work OK (Except for the shoulder LOL) so I don’t know what to make of it.

Hopefully you can give some guidance.

Thanks

It’s a power supply issue. Please send an e-mail to [email protected] with a link to this thread, and your order or invoice number. We apologize for any inconvenience.

Thanks for the help
