Does the cRio cut motors at 5.5Vdc on CAN?
Hi all,
I was just watching Al S's video on electrical design from 2009 and he mentioned that the cRio cuts the PWM outputs when the system voltage drops below 5.5Vdc.
Does anyone know if it will do this with the CAN control system too???

This seems like a handy feature.

Thanks much

Mike
