Re: paper: FRC cRIO II
Yellow flashing lights on the Jaguar speed controllers means they are not receiving a PWM command signal. Lots of reasons this could be:
  • Did you image the cRIO with the imaging tool?
  • Did you then download code?
  • Does the code activate the PWM you have your motors connected to?
  • Did you connect to the cRIO from a laptop running the Driver Station (are the connection status lights red or green)?
  • Did you Enable the robot from the Driver Station?
  • Are the PWM cables connected in the proper orientation?
  • Is the Digital Sidecar powered properly (all three power LEDs are bright green)?
  • Is the cRIO Digital module in slot #2?
