Problem with Motor direction
Our programing / electronics team was trying our bench top test and we found that one of our motors was traveling backwards. The jaguar is receiving a backwards signal as denoted by the LED's color being 'orange-ish'.

We set up the bench top test stock from the KOP. Our cables were hooked up correctly. The motors did drive. We are using the WPI library (unmodified).

Any insight if its just the WPI library? Is there a physical fix (reversing cables???) other than reversing the motors in the library coding.
