Re: Motors not responding to joysticks
Over here at 1612, we had the exact same problem as you. Our wiring was correct and everything else worked, it was just that the Jaguars did not respond. We followed a few steps and now it works:
(we don't know which one of these fixed the problem)
1) Checked and replugged in all of our wires to make sure they were inserted correctly.
2) Downloaded the default code.
3) Re-imaged the cRIO.
4) Noticed that switching to autonomous mode lit up lights we hadn't seen before on module number 8 (the only module in the cRIO that has LED lights), this was the desired function of the autonomous mode of the default code.
5) Hit the reset button on the cRIO.
6) Plugged the joysticks into a computer (Windows running in a Virtual Machine)
7) Plugged the joysticks into the Driver Station and restarted it.
Again, some of these steps are probably unneeded and as we don't know which step(s) fixed our problem, we made sure to list everything we did.
Thanks for the other comments,
