If you can tell me how to move the jumper I would be very pleased.

Thanks for your help!

If you are using CAN you can actually turn on/off the braking in software with no hardware changes, ignoring the jumper position.


If you are using PWM to control the motors:

Looking at the Jaguar motor controller, to the right of where you plug in the PWM cable there are three pins with a jumper. if you put the jumber on the two pins to the right (these should be signal and low) the controller is in brake mode. I do not have a controller in front of me to see the specific labelling but if my directions are not clear enough go to the Jaguar site http://www.luminarymicro.com/jaguar and you can look at there instructions in the geting started file.
