[MSG:WARN: Encoder I2C error -103 on Top Left]
[MSG:WARN: Bad connection on Top Left encoder, failed to read 1 times in the last second]
[MSG:ERR: Emergency stop. Update function not being called enough. 1003ms since last call]
I have been running the Maslow for over a year now and was occasionally getting this warning/error. I thought it might be one of the tags on the encoder shorting out so I pulled the arm apart and took the motor off to access the encoder. One of the tags was a little long, so I trimmed it back, remounted the motor with a piece of plastic under the encoder, so it couldn’t short and started the reassembly. When I picked up the screwdriver it had the small cog wheel attached via the magnet. I pulled it off and the magnet stayed attached to the screwdriver! After gluing it back into place with super glue, I left it for a while to set, then reassembled the arm. So far no problem, Maslow back together, did another Find Anchor, more to test the V1.20 than any other reason, and did some test GCode runs. All appears OK.
This is more for information than any desire for help.
