PWMs Active in Programming Mode?
We finally hooked up our new FRC to a pair of VEX servos last night to tinker around with EasyC (we've been messing with LabView and the camera standalone). While walking through the Getting Started section of the help file, we needed to put the FRC into Programming Mode to receive a download. On each occasion, shortly after entering Programming Mode and before actually initiating the download, the servos we had connected to PWM01 and PWM02 went spastic for 2-3 seconds. This was, consistently, about 5-10 seconds *after* the controller was indicating that it was in programming mode.

Has anyone else seen this or should I be calling IFI for a replacement controller?
