Which motors are PWM 1, 2, 3, 4?

When programming the code, it says that specific motors are for PWM 1, 2, 3, and 4. When we tested our electronics on a test board, we knew which motors were for PWM 1, 2, 3, and 4, but now we already have our motors mounted on the robot, and don't know which Jaguars to plug into PWM ports 1, 2, 3, and 4 on the digital sidecar. HELP!

You are able to change the pwm channels on your vis for your drive train. I've never heard that motors have to go to specific vis. I've always been able to choose which pwm for which motor. Post a screenshot of your code if you need more help.

Just so you know, double-posting is discouraged.

You chose which PWM channels you want to hook your motors in. If you don't know where the motors are connected, consult a member of your team that is familiar with the electronic configurations of your cRio system.
