R61 B says if you are using PWM then you cannot have anything in the other ports which includes canbus

R61 A also would prohibit the PWM connection if you are using canbus since there is no way for you to turnoff the PWM signal.

I expect if you tried to do it the Jag would default to one ignoring the other completely.

The Jag firmware 101 (another thread) seems to have fixed an issue with the canbus. A trashy signal use to take the Jag offline until a power reset. It now will try to reset itself.
