We tried this with Labview Open 4 motors with Can Jaguar and have the same issue. We may have bitten off more than we can chew with using the Can rather than PWM< but thought it would be the best way to minimize wiring.

We were daisy chaining the Jags, (4) for all motors, and when we enter ID 1, 2, 3, 4, motor 1 passes, but 2 thru 4 return the error. We can communicate to 1 jag with no issues, but the LAbView coed does not allow you to change the address for each individual motor. Always reverts to PWM by default for motor 2, 3, and 4. Maybe I am missing something, but had other eyes looking at it with me, and no joy!

Any experienced Labview folks tried this yet????
