I’ve a problem with the servos in the Medium-Duty Wrist Rotate Kit for the ALD5 arm (the version with the Feetech FS6535M replacement servo): they do not work.
The wrist servo is connected to channel 4 and the gripper servo is connected to channel 5 on the SSC-32U USB Servo Controller. First I’ve connected the wrist and gripper servos as mentioned in the assembly guide (= with extender cables; colors are the same of both sides of the connection), but I wasn’t able to get the servos to work that way. Then I tried connecting them without the extender cables and got the same result: no sign of life from the servos. They also do not show up in the SSC-32 Servo Sequencer Utility program (all other servos do and can be controlled this way).
The A/B LEDs are both shining constantly; the blue power LED does the same.
I’ve attached a few pictures showing the robot in hope this might help.
Thank you for the pictures. Assuming that you connect the provided 6 V DC power supply and a USB cable from the SSC-32U to your computer, then at a first glance, everything seems fine with your wiring and setup.
By not showing, we assume you mean they are grayed out/unchecked (see below)?
If so, please note that the sequencer by default only activates 4 channels and these have nothing to do with what is connected on the SSC-32U (it does not have a way to detect servomotors that are connected). Simply check the channels you wish to use to activate them in the software.
