Re: Motor Controller Problems

Five quick things to check:

1. Are your three pin cables inserted in the proper orientation? If not, then you are grounding the PWM pin on the speed controller = no signal.

2. Is your 37 pin cable between the cRIO module and the DSC securely plugged in?

3. Are you properly supplying power to the DSC?

4. What is your RSL output looking like?

5. (I think the answer is yes, but...)Are you enabling your robot at the driver station?
