I’m having a hard time isolating what the issue might be for my new Pixy2 servo mount kit.
I have followed the assembly guide and have completed the assembly of the mount. On initialization- I am trying to use the demo program “pan_tilt”. My Pixy2 has already been updated to have a valid signature- and I can see it recognizing the signature correctly on the “color_connected_components” demo.
But after switching to the pan til demo- tracking powered by servo’s doesn’t work. I followed the troubleshooting guide- and confirmed that the pan and tilt connectors are correctly aligned .
I inputted the example manual servo movements into the console of PixyMon
rcs_setPos 0 1000
rcs_setPos 0 0
rcs_setPos 1 1000
rcs_setPos 1 0
and unfortunately only get back response: 0 (0x0)
which I assume in an indication that the hardware wasn’t able to be reached for the instruction.
I am powering this device through the provided USB cable with a converter to USB-C on a MacOSX Catalina (10.15.6).
A note on the USB-C converter, I had removed it and plugged the USB directly into a Window’s desktop to see if the problem was the power conversion- and even then the response was the same.
Any help would be much appreciated- thank you!
