Problem with Jaguar Inputs

[Alan Anderson]

Blinking yellow means they're not receiving any commands. You're using PWM control from the Digital Sidecar, right? Make sure your cables are correctly connected to the pins they're supposed to be connected to. The Jaguar PWM connection is obvious, but check to see that you don't have it plugged in backwards. The Sidecar PWM connections are similarly obvious -- they're the widely-spaced triplets of pins with white friction-fit plastic retainers on each set -- but again verify that the connectors are not backwards.

And look at the three power LEDs on the Digital Sidecar. If any of them isn't brightly lit, you need to fix your power wiring.

What is the big orange Robot Signal Light doing while you try to make your Jaguars respond? It should be on with a very brief flicker off about every second and a half.
