Re: Jaguar exploded resistor???

This happened to us today. I wired up a Jaguar for CIM that runs our conveyor system. I heard a small pop and smelled burning electronics..... never a good sign.

So we tested it on one of our drive CIMs just to make sure it was dead, and the results came back positive, so we switched in our last Jaguar, but it has been running fine so far. I had heard of other Jaguars burning out before too, so I wasn't THAT surprised.
