The jaguar needs to have a pwm cable connected to a Digital Sidecar PWM that has been Opened in code actively running on the cRIO and it has to be Enabled by the Driver Station which must have the E-stop button plugged in.

Did you power everything up and connect it all?
What are the Driver Station status lights showing.

Yoav,

Is the PWM cable attached between the Jaguar and the Digital Side Car?

Everything is connected as showed in the Diagram posted in firstw's site...
should i put a "jumper" as i did when i connected the camera servos?

No jumper.
Jumpers are only needed to run servos.

What is the status light on your Digital Sidecar doing (solid, long on-quick off, fast bink)?
I circled it in red in this photo from AndyMark.biz.
