Re: no response from jags in CAN
Alan, I'll ask the same question. Which examples are you having trouble with? What exactly is the problem you are seeing? The experienced people could give much more helpful suggestions, if you provide more information.

For our team, we just hit a roadblock this weekend, when our voltage regulator quit on our analog breakout board. The problem somehow masqueraded as a CAN problem, because the LabView program wouldn't drive our omni-wheels, when it couldn't get the gyro input. That problem had nothing to do with CAN, but it made it look like there was a CAN/cRio issue because we could drive any of the Jaguars via BDC-Comm.

We replaced the analog breakout board, and now that robot is spinning three times faster than our gyro can track. This is our test robot, and it is giving us more confidence in going down the CAN path.
