In other words, the differences in comms between RIO<=> Jag and RIO<=>TalonSRX is handled in software. Sorry Mike if that point wasn't communicated better. As much as I liked the 2CAN, we were very happy last year with integration of CANbus in the RIO (best for teams).
Thanks, Omar! I think I got all of that into update #2. Hopefully, this presentation will help teams understand all of the pieces come kick-off.
