Re: Partial Jag failure?

That works as a partial explanation.

Any idea why it would refuse to output power? (That is, it reported its calculated output voltage as zero)
I'm guessing it's one of the fault conditions. I know of four:
  • Current fault
  • Temperature fault
  • Bus Voltage fault
  • Gate Driver fault (I don't know how it detects this)
I can rule out the Current and Bus Voltage faults right now. I know it tells me of those. The battery was fine, and the Current Fault is temporary.

Does the BDC-COMM display a Temperature fault or a Gate Driver fault in red, as it does the Current fault?
