Re: Unexplained intermittent CAN / 2CAN Jaguar problems at GSR
Just to clear up my post above...
Even with our Jaguars using %VBUS with CAN and only the potentiometers connected to the Jaguars as sensors...
We still get time out errors in addition to the occasional lock up.
The more wear and tear we put on our batteries the worse the problem gets.
Using the PID loops in the Jaguars seems to make the problems worse for us (to the point of dysfunction in some cases).
Due to the competition schedule, and now our additional appearance in St. Louis, we'll probably not want to tinker too much with the practice or production robot until it can't impact on performance at competition.
As soon as we can, I'd like to revisit this issue...even if we have to slap together another frame.
Our team has a spare new cRIO and I have a new Jaguar and some CIM motors.
