Re: SD540 Motor controllers won't run in reverse
The fact that the software works flawlessly with a Talon SR eliminates our software as a root cause. (unless my problem solving logic is flawed) We put a multi-meter on the pwm signal line and verified that we are sending a voltage in both directions (although the values escape me at the moment).
When we send the reverse signal, there is no response from the controller.

We have nothing attached to the limit switch pins, and they are set to normally open.
