Re: Advantage of CAN?

You can use the encoders using 2 digital inputs from the Digital Sidecar just fine, without using CAN.

As far as advantages, the main one that I personally like is no more zip tying PWM wires together to run them across the robot several times. With CAN, the Jaguars can be daisy chained together, making it look a lot cleaner and easier to find faults.
