We are passing -1.0 to 1.0 to the Set() function and using the SetVoltageRampRate() with no problems. It has to be something else.

Did you by chance set the limits to normally closed at some point and leave them that way? Check the status using the web interface and see if something looks goofy. What revision of the firmware is on the Talons?
