Re: Jaguars arent working

The jaguar needs to have a pwm cable connected to a Digital Sidecar PWM that has been Opened in code actively running on the cRIO and it has to be Enabled by the Driver Station which must have the E-stop button plugged in.

Did you power everything up and connect it all?
What are the Driver Station status lights showing.

Re: Jaguars arent working

Yoav,

Is the PWM cable attached between the Jaguar and the Digital Side Car?

Re: Jaguars arent working

No jumper.
Jumpers are only needed to run servos.

What is the status light on your Digital Sidecar doing (solid, long on-quick off, fast bink)?
I circled it in red in this photo from AndyMark.biz.
