this. I have heard reports that the control cables going to PWM's have enough power coming from the cRio to power 4 speed controllers, but if you add a 5th they do not have enough juice. Therefore, you need to make sure that you are powering you sidecar as described above. There were connectors for the sidecar provided in the KoP. (I believe they're called WAGO connectors?)
