We used Robotbuilder to quickly create a two motor robotdrive with these TalonSRX speed controllers. Then generated the Java Code, Imported into eclips, and downloaded to the RoboRio.

Putting the Robot in test mode we get no response from the motors?
The lights on the PDP flash Green quickly = Robot is enabled
Light on the Talons Flash alternately orange = CAN bus detected, robot disabled

I'm milling though the documents. What am I missing?

You have to initialize the CAN Talons through code for them to start in their non disabled state. Their getting the same signal they were getting when it was disabled since you're not sending any data to them.
