We have two Victor 888 motor controllers from 2014 KOPs as well as previously purchased Talon controllers. We wired up two of each on our test electrical system (The base system we will be using on our robot once our chassis construction is finished). Our Talon MCs work on any of the 1,2,3, and 4 PWM ports but the Victor 888s will never activate the motor. Code wise we are using Java. In our troubleshooting we instantiated specific java "Victor" MCs on the correct ports within the code. Still never got it moving the motor. The Victor 888s have the same flashing light as what the Talons show but the signal never seems to activate anything. The light never changes from the flashing (no PWM input) light. We have since swapped out the two Victor 888s for two other Talons. Our test system works great minus the Victors. However, we would like to get these two Victor 888s functioning.

Has anyone experienced this issue before? We are wondering if our Victor 888s are faulty and if so how can we test this? Any other ideas or suggestions?
