Re: Legality of Jaguar closed-loop control modes
ok so what about the attached limit switches on the JAGS. by default ( and I don't think there is a way of turning this off) in both the PWM and CAN mode you can attach 2 limit switched to the Jag to stop the motor at both its low and high points . . am I to understand that these ports are off limits as well?

I get the desire to minimize “unanticipated surprises”, but we have had these devices for 3 seasons, CAN for 2 ( I would like to know if any one used the closed loop modes last year),and a whole range of beta tests ( not to mention the inclusion of the closed loop modes in the custom FRC Labview and Jag firmware builds).

it just seams a little weird
