[OpenArm] E-stop interlock false triggers and recovery for builders integrators (intermediate)
OpenArm troubleshooting thread: [OpenArm] E-stop interlock false triggers and recovery for builders integrators (intermediate). Practical checks, likely root caus...
One frustrating OpenArm failure mode is when the emergency-stop or safety interlock appears to trigger for the wrong reason: not because the robot is truly unsafe, but because wiring, noise, controller state, or startup order causes a false trip.
How are you diagnosing false E-stop or interlock triggers on OpenArm without weakening the real safety system?
Please share how you identify whether the fault came from wiring, noisy signals, controller transitions, or user procedure, and how you safely recover once the interlock trips.
If you reply, include one exact false-trigger symptom and one exact check that separated a real stop condition from a bad signal or sequencing issue.
The strongest replies here explain how you preserved safety while debugging the trigger source. That detail matters.
If you found a startup sequence or wiring check that consistently catches the issue, share it. Searchers often need that first.
It is especially useful to say how recovery was validated before normal operation resumed.
