Re: Multiple CAN networks
well, after digging through the code a bit more I found out that the interfaces to the CAN plugins are handled by the closed-source NetworkCommunication libraries. I think it is possible to bypass the libraries, however doing so will also most likely bypass the disable button for CAN jaguars.

There are two options. one, I can go forward with bypassing the networkcommunication backend and breaking the disable button and all watchdogs, or could you possibly change the cRIO-side jags to PWM mode and still do the networked 2CAN.
