Re: Help with CAN bus closed-loop speed control

All of the CAN VIs are available on FIRSTForge. http://firstforge.wpi.edu/sf/frs/do/....canjaguar/frs

The VIs included with LabVIEW do not support CAN. The SetSpeed VI that comes with LabVIEW uses PWM and sets a voltage, it doesn't actually set a closed loop speed.

CAN does not run from the digital sidecar, it either runs from the serial port on the cRIO through a black jaguar or from ethernet through a 2CAN. When you said CAN, did you really mean PWM?
