Hi everybody, I am trying to install my new gripper but I have no action to the gripper at all. I have installed it using the instructions. I have tried the channel 1 and 3 and the buttons of the joystick 9 and 10 with and without shift function. I have checked that I have 15v to the power terminals… Have you any idea what to try? Everything else is working like charm. Thank you in advance! ---

@nmau, I assume: The yellow wire on the servo cable is plugged into either the bottom pin of aux servo channels 1 or 3 You have setup the following button functions: servo\_X\_max\_momentary (open while pressed) servo\_X\_min\_momentary (close while pressed) where X is either 1 or 3 Did you try using your controller bumper buttons to control the gripper like BR did?

I have just installed the gripper as well per instructions and got it to work twice before it stopped working. Didn’t get a chance to reboot the rov n software to see if it would start functoning again. Will try again today. Qgc is 3.2.4 rev 6 ---

@tciii That link seems to be broken. In my case, i got it to work but then it stopped. Same buttons, n no changes in between. ---

Hi guys, sorry you’re having some issues here. First, I’d like to verify you have the most up-to-date firmware loaded: ArduSub 3.5.3. Make sure that your button presses correlate to the correct action you want. After that, please check that you are using the “servo\_X\_min/max\_momentary” and not the other servo settings (min/max or min/max\_toggle). Please post a screenshot of your button settings if possible. ---

Thanks guys, you have turned my inspection class rov into a work class rov by fitting the Newton Gripper. Strong grip on it,so don’t be putting your fingers in to try it out. ---

Did you have to cut the head off the gripper to free yourself? ---

@SpatialGuy, not exactly, but it is surprisingly a strong gripper… nmau
