No, I guess I have been missing something. I have looked at a lot of Jaguar docs but missed that one.
Looks good.
Has anyone used two (or more) Jaguars driving 1 wheel (or more specifically set of wheels on one side of the robot), with one wheel encoder feeding multiple Jaguars... ...IN VELOCITY CONTROL MODE (phew! that's a mouth full)?
If so, did it work well? Also did you use an I term in the PID loop (i.e. a I gain != 0)?
Finally, digging even MORE into the details, "Speed Ref <val>" command takes an unsigned 8 bit number for <val>. How do you set negative velocities ? Oh... never mind, I see that this is used to tell the Jaguar what is the speed sensor (only the encoder is supported but I guess they are imagining a day when others may be)
