reviewing the logs from your installation of ARC, it appears you may not have enough power correctly provided to the ezb v3. I would consult the ezrobot manuals or datasheet for the product from their website. What power supply are you providing the ezb v3?

I am using the battery pack/holder that came with the kit.
