I think that is the same issue mentioned here: #1956

@SimoneMic I don't think so, the error is related to different boards.

Hello @isorrentino @SimoneMic the problem originates from the AMC EB31 which has a small fault. Sometimes it does not start in eApplication, but in eUpdater.

For now there are no plans to replace the board, as a walkaround you can do the following steps.

Start FirmwareUdater -a on the robot torso. Select the board and click on Set Def Boot eApplication (1) and Force ETH Application (2).

The robot will run correctly until the problem occurs again.

The problem is tracked internally, so I'm closing this issue and if we will work on upgrading the robot in the future, we will proceed with replacing the board.
