Re: No PWM outputs

So, just to close the loop, I got the problem resolved.

After walking through the system with two experienced robot inspectors, a FTA and several other folks a bystander walked up and suggested we plug the PWM's into the PWM output instead of the digital IO. *doh* This just goes to show that
a. sometimes you need someone outside the situation to solve a problem and
b. ME's on cold medicine should not be allowed to wire the robot.

Thanks to everyone for your help and support. I hope that some others found the conversation to be as educational as I did. I will now crawl back under my rock and die of embarrassment.
