Re: Problem with jaguar's "loss of servo link"

we have done all those things that you listed correctly. for the flashing led, after 20 seconds of powering on the robot, it starts flashing in no pattern, but if we hook the robot signal light up to it that starts flashing too, so we assume it is related to that. here are some pictures of our wiring.

ps, in this image you can see the second digital side car is not powered, that was temporary and is fixed now.

How long are the flashes? .2 seconds off and .2 seconds on indicates no communication with the driver station.

Re: Problem with jaguar's "loss of servo link"

all right i looked at it and it looks like its flashing at .2 intervals but im not sure. i checked the connection with both digital sidecars and the rsl indicator only flashes when the digital sidecar is connected to port 4 of the serial port, if its port 6 its fine, although i still get no connection to the jaguars.

here is a video of the flash in case you want to look at it. unfortunately i cant link you directly to the video (youtube is blocked at school), only my channel, but if its processed it should be easy to find.

thanks for help
