Re: Struggling with LabView and Talon SRX CAN

If you have any questions on the exact process, let me know, I'd love to help.
You should not have to modify any existing sub-VIs to have CAN Talon SRX work with the Open 2/4 Motor VIs. In fact, I would definitely recommend not doing these modifications unless you are extremely proficient in LabVIEW.

To use CAN Talon SRX with these multi-motor Open VIs, wire the output of the Talon SRX Open VI to the input of the Open 2/4 Motor VI when "Existing Motors" is selected from the drop-down. There is an example of this in our LabVIEW Simple Arcade Drive Example on GitHub.
