Re: Vex PIC Microcontroller V0.5 to cim Via VictorSp???

The only way I could see this not working is if the PIC supplies >5vdc through the PWM line. The old motors those powered ran solely off of the power from the pwm, so the PIC's circuitry may have been designed to pump 7.2V or otherwise down the line, which would be damaging to the Victor SP.

I looked for a few minutes but did not find anything indicating what was being sent besides pulse ranges
