Re: PDP Reading Incorrectly over CAN

You need to provide some more information. What values are present for all the channels at any given point in time? What is hooked up to each channel, and what is it doing? Do you have a meter to independently measure the current for a channel you believe is reporting incorrectly?. By itself, a single channel pulling 23 amps while the overall is at 30 amps could easily be done with a motor under load hooked up to that channel, and little activity on the other channels of the board.
