If I read a motor controller (encoder/speed/output/voltage/etc), is this sending a CAN signal to ask it to send feedback or is the controller constantly sending this information and when I get() it just looks for the feedback?
At least with CTR devices, things like sensor position and velocity are periodically sent out and calling the getter will grab the latest value.
The period of these is determined with the frame periods, documented here:

Can’t speak for other devices.
