Both the Talon SR and the Talon SRX support PWM control. Having said that, wiring the Talon SRX for PWM control requires some modification of either the PWM cable or the Talon SRX signal cables. Once you've made those modifications, hot-swapping either motor controller (and keeping in mind that the Talon SRX doesn't support the fork connectors you might commonly use with the Talon SR) should be simple. Refer to section 1.3.3 on the User Guide for more information.

I saw someone mention the code from NI being wrong concerning mecanum drive in a forum post (although the forum post was deleted in the past few minutes).
mecanumDrive_Cartesian() shouldn't have any issues with the Talon SR or Talon SRX. Issues with the method and CAN Jaguars were reported.
