Re: Snow blower motor on motor controller
For those folks wondering about Talon SRX and the snow blower motor, we hooked a SB motor up to a Talon SRX last night. We were using CAN bus control but in %voltage mode. The code was in C++. We had Anderson power poles on all of the current carrying connections. When using the Talon SRX demo code, everything worked like a champ. Both forward and backwards through the Talon SRX with no perceivable lag, stutter or any other noticable issues. The Talon was at CAN ID 2, and the PDP was at ID 0. The RoboRIO was running V23 with the F01 firmware.

HTH,

Mike
