Re: Jaguars and Motors - Labview with cRIO
We are also having big problems! We have a test board all wired up and lights seem to indicate that it is working correctly when powered up (Jaguars flash, green power lights on sidecar (all of them...), etc. We have imaged the cRIO (v. 18 I think) and that seems to work fine. When we load labview code to test out a motor it does nothing. We also tried a servo but got nothing.
Questions:
1. Does the stop button need to be plugged in for everything to work? If it is not plugged in, does everything need a reboot after plugging it in? What about the robot light (I assume this is not needed?)
2. If we put a digital voltmeter on the PWM outputs, what kind of readings should we get when trying to drive a Jaguar, and what kind of readings should we get when operating a hobby servo?
3. After uploading the labview code do we deploy by just hitting the run button at the top?
4. Any other ideas?
Thanks!
