Re: Reversed Jaguar Output using PercentVBus
What happens if you give it a -1 command? Have you tried using that Jaguar with a PWM signal to see what the output is? Are you seeing any error codes on the Jag's LED?

If you've swapped in a different Jaguar, and the different Jaguar works fine, it almost HAS to be a hardware issue with the funky Jag. I'm having difficulty coming up with a failure mode that would result in that, but it can't be software or firmware, as the conversion of % command to output is hard coded. If all else fails and it's a new Jaguar, RMA it to TI. I'm sure they'd be quite interested in finding out what's gone wrong with it.

EDIT: If you can't RMA it, bring it to the Bayou Regional. I'd also like to see if I can figure out what went wrong with it.
