The Jaguar can definitely read two limit switches at the same time. This is regardless of the communication mode (CAN or PWM).

This is exactly how the limit switches are handled in Jaguar's firmware. There is one switch for Forward and one switch for Reverse (marked with an F and R). If only the R switch goes open-circuit, only the Reverse direction is stopped.

Look at the success of the Banebot's gearboxes this year. Cheap, light, small, and a lot of people are using them, even though their quality may be a bit questionable... Make a similar gearbox for a drivetrain (with a bit more robustness) and I think you've got a winner. - Ben Piecuch [more]
