CAN-Where to Start
Hello,
Our 2010 robot encountered some serious problem during the season.
When we are driving the robot, at some moment, one of the driving motor will overheat and the robot would get disabled for 2~3 seconds.
We are not sure what the reason is yet, but we were suspecting that the motor might be drawing too much current and it would trip off the internal switch of the Gray Jaguar that we were using.
To fix that problem, my team chose to apply CAN on 2010 robot. We are planning write a program that will use the CAN's current sensing ability to check whether the current is in the safe range and whenever it gets too high, we would like to reduce the current.
We have all the hardwares ready but we just don't know where to start in programming wise. Could anyone please help us get started with CAN?
Any help will be greatly appreciated. (LabVIEW codes, picture, link, anything)
It can also be about something else we can do with CAN. (anything relating to CAN is much appreciated!)
Thank you so much!
