Re: PID on Jaguars is Illegal
c/p from team update #4:
As long as the CAN bus is wired legally so that the heartbeat from the cRIO is maintained, the closed loop control features of the Jaguar motor controller may be used. (That is, commands originating from the cRIO to configure, enable, and specify an operating point for all Jaguar closed loop modes fit the intent of <R49>.)

(our software subteam breathes a sigh of relief.)
