Short Circuits
When a positive and negative connection touch one another you have a short
circuit. The battery as well as the
have a built-in fuse
to keep them from being damaged by a short circuit. They simply switch off the
power supply for a while. Naturally, your model will not work anymore either.
The cause for a short circuit can be either a mistake in the wiring or screws which
have not been tightened sufficiently in the connectors. They can touch when the
connectors are plugged in, causing a short circuit. That's why you should always
completely screw in the screws and plug in the plugs so that the screws cannot
touch each other.
Errors in the Program
Even if no one likes to admit it: Everyone makes mistakes. And especially with
complex programs, an error can creep in quite quickly.
If your model still doesn't do what you want it to after you have checked everything
on the model itself and have remedied any faults, you should also check your
program. Go through it line for line to see if you can find the error.
You can also watch the program running on the monitor in the online mode, which
means with the
connected to the PC. The program
element active at any given moment is highlighted allowing you to always see the
point where the program is and where the error occurs.
