clearpath husky emergency stop issue [closed]
Hello,
I have a clearpath husky a200. Recently, there has been a problem where the husky will keep activating the emergency stop during operation (see attached video). The problem used to happen maybe once in a while; however, it has gotten to a point now where we are are not able to even teleoperate the robot.
Things we've tried that didn't work:
- charging the battery overnight to ensure full charge
- checked all connections on board from sensors, estop receiver...etc
- charged the estop pendent to ensure full charge
Please let me know if you've seen this issue before?

UPDATE (May 21st): I have tried installing a new ISO for the husky, still didn't fix the problem
UPDATE 2 (May 23rd): I have found that the error seems to happen less when operating at extremely low speeds and acceleration via keyboard teleoperation (teleop_twist_keyboard: this package allows the user to increase/decrease speed). This might be why joystick operation causes the error to happen immediately (the joystick commands outputs a preset high velocity/acceleration upon user input).
Could there be a corrupted file somewhere in Husky that prohibits certain user vel/accel commands which subsequently stops the husky? If so, where should I look?
Also, how can I lower the speed output from the joystick operation to verify that this is indeed a speed/acceleration limit issue?
Could you clarify whether you've contacted Clearpath about this already?
yes, I have emailed tech support at clearpath but I was hoping someone whose experienced this before may help me before clearpath responds

Clearpath has confirmed that this is a hardware issue.
