Re: Jaguars - Current Mode Fails
Does anyone have any experience trying to get a "slave" CIM to sync current output with a "master" CIM - specifically in the application of a 4-motor (2 per side) drivetrain?

I'm curious what ballpark PID values were used, and what your tuning methodology was.

We're planning on using the speed control PID on the master Jags. If there is a PID loop running on the slave Jags just to match the currents, if it doesn't react fast enough, it'll confuse the master Jag's speed PID loop. Sort of like trying to hit a constantly moving target.

Has anyone already implemented something similar to this?
