Re: Question about human disable

My understanding was that when the pressure pad was deactivated, the disabled bit gets set. When that is set, the robot is disabled which causes the outputs of the RC are held at neutral (127). Your PID loop will continue to run, however, there will be no output to your motors. Be careful that your integral component doesn't wind up while you're disabled...that could make for some interesting results when the pad was reactivated
