Re: Luminary Micro / Jaguar

This looks like a good place to post a jaguar question. We were doing some testing with fisher motors on jaguars. The jaguar was connected to the 40 amp self-resetting breakers on the PD board. We found that under continuous high current draw (less than 40 amps because the breakers didn't blow) the motors would shut off after a few seconds, then come on and off randomly for less than a second at a time. The leds on the jaguars never faltered, staying bright and steady. If we reverse the motor under load it doesn't reverse at all, just shuts off (again the leds were showing as expected, solid colors, red one dir. and green the other) for a few seconds and then starts pulsing. Any ideas? Is there an internal temperature limiter on the Jaguar?
