Any ideas on how to debug flakey dynamixel connections?

Having trouble consistently being able to connect to motors and scan them via dynamixel, wondering if there's ways to debug it more

  • When attaching them one by one, it works most of the times, and nothing shows up on scanning via Dynamixel wizard rest of the time
  • When trying to connect one motor to another, nothing shows up on scanning via Dynamixel wizard 100% of the time
  • When have the whole setup wired, the smaller motors are blinking red (seems like that's incorrect voltage error) – and nothing shows up on Dynamixel wizard scanning

The Dynamixel wizard shows you the input voltage. You could check that this is correct. Otherwise, I have no idea.

Gotcha, will debug more, thanks!
