Attachment 9873
When we run the program and enable the robot, the Jaguar LED is steady amber, however, it doesn't respond to the joystick. We've tried replacing the joystick with a front panel control, but still no response. Are we missing something?

Thanks.
I'm having a setup issue with our Black Jaguars. I am unable to assign a new ID and when I try to update the firmware I get an "Unable to contact the boot loader!" message.

Mode tab: I am able to move the slider to adjust the settings at the bottom of the BDC-COMM screen when connected.

System tab: Board information is: none,none; Hardware Version: 0; Firmware Version: 0; New Board ID: 1

Ideas??
