Re: RoboRIO unable to detect Jaguars wired through CAN

The thing about the situation that confuses me the most is we still have comms to the PCM and the PDP while the wires are hooked into the jags but it is almost like the roborio is ignoring them entirely.

Here is a current screenshot of our web UI:

That's not confusing. What I think I see in your photo is...
RIO(L) - Jag(H) - Jag (H) - PCM(L) - PDP(L)
RIO(H) - Jag(L) - Jag (L) - PCM(L) - PDP(H)

So of course PCM/PDP work one way. Then again without being there its hard to tell. When you flipped did you see the Jags in the roboRIO web-page config?

Anyway it really shouldn't be this difficult. At this point I would just connect the RIO to one Jag only and get that working. Are these out-of-the-box Jags? Where they ever used before? If so were they working on can or pwm?
