I mean does the motor move?
Talon SRX LEDs?
Does the Talon show up in the web-based config?
What mode is reported in the Self-Test after you enable?
Is the sensor pos changing in the Self-Test?
Is the sensor pos moving int a positive direction when positive throttle is applied?

Hi,

We want our robot to drive straight when we push our stick forward. It's pretty straight already, but not perfect. The ultimate goal is to have the encoder stuff available for use in the autonomous mode.


Does the motor move? Yes, it does. Quite well.

Talon SRX LEDs? They flash different colors depending on the direction. And the brake/coast light functions too.

What mode is reported in the Self-Test after you enable? I assume you are referencing the "Test" tab in the driver's station. When enabled, nothing really comes up. It really looks the same, I think. Maybe I am misunderstanding you...

For those last two questions, I don't even know where to locate those values. So, I probably misunderstood your last question as well.


Thank you for all your help so far,
