Re: Losing Jaguars? What are the common reasons why it burns out?
The only jag we lost (permanently) was when it was wired incorrectly (input power reversed). We currently have about 18 jags. We are using 8 jags to control our bot, and are running CAN bus (same as last year). We did have several stop responding while being addressed for CAN, but we were able to recover them using the recovery utility.
My recommendation: When addressing jags, do not try to address a whole string at once. For gray jags, use a black jag as the converter and only connect one gray jag at a time. For black jags, connect directly to one and only one black jag.
