I'm pretty sure 0 is not a valid ID for a device on the CAN network, but I don't know if the host might appear as having an ID of 0 (regardless of whether the CAN bus itself is working or not).
When I connect another Jaguar, the enumeration still only reports a single device with an ID of 0.
Currently I am working with the BDC-COMM, and a USB to Serial device (Keyspan brand). Once I get that working, I'll move back to the cRIO.
So, I just ran BDC-COMM without anything connected to my serial port.

It enumerates a Jaguar with an ID of 0.

This means that you have a communication problem between your computer and the black jag.
There are several points of failure, if one of them doesn't work, then none of it will.

Chances are, if you couldn't connect with the cRio, or the computer that the problem lies either with the 6-pin cord from the adapter or the adapter itself.
