Motor Controller issue
We have a Jaguar hooked up with the 2015 PDP and the roboRIO, input voltage is 12.5 V and output is 3.4, we also tested a Talon SR and it's output is 5.4 volts.
We are wondering why? Last edited by FRC2501 : 30-01-2015 at 16:43. |

Re: Motor Controller issue
Sounds like your PWM signal is positive and less-than-full. Talon SR LED can give you a sense of how much throttle you are commanding (see Section 5 in Talon SR User's Manual). What is your expectation exactly?

Re: Motor Controller issue
You are going to have to tell us what you expected to be the result of this. What PWM/CAN signal were you sending it, or were you sending it any PWM/CAN?

Re: Motor Controller issue
We were expecting a full forward (that should be 12V), we did select the correct motor controller for each test in our code
The LED was blinking so our PWM wasn't full, even though the code was telling it to be full, we will try calibrating then get back to you Last edited by FRC2501 : 31-01-2015 at 11:18. |

Re: Motor Controller issue
We calibrated all of our Talon SRs and now they give a full 12.55V output, we haven't tried a Jag yet but we only plan on using Talon SRs on our robot
