Black Jaguar CAN Issues

Hey there,

We have run into an interesting problem. We had an old testboard with one black Jaguar serving as an RS232 gateway to CAN from the cRIO, and daisy chained to several Grey Jaguars working just fine. But when we shifted to our actual electrical board, with only Black Jaguars daisy chained to each other (and all flashed correctly with the v89 Firmware and different ID's), our programmers could not get a response from any jaguar but the initiating one. We swapped out both Jaguars and cables in an effort to solve the issue, but to no avail. Running our Jaguars over CAN is crucial to us since we want to wire our encoders directly into them.

Does anyone have some advice as to how we can solve this issue?

Thanks
--Jay
