Re: Grey Jaguar No Power Out

I tested with a stronger battery and it had the same 2v drop through the jag showing on both analog and digital meters.
Jag goes solid green for forward.
I'll put a scope on it later to see what's happening to both the power output and to confirm the PWM input signal is at full.
I took the load off for this second test, so the Jag had nothing connected this time.

The original test was done on a competition robot. I moved the second test to a stand-alone cRIO/Jag (quieter that way...).
