CAN Talon SRX Not Working

I can’t for the life of me figure out how to program the talon srx to work. Can someone take a look at my begin and teleop.vi and tell me if you see something wrong?? Mind the broken wires in the teleop code, it was how i copied it. Also the initialization of the motor and the teleop code are from the appropriate vi.





You don’t seem to be putting in a device number. Use the context help under the help menu to see the description.
I can’t remember if the default device ID for new Talons is 0 or 1 The VI may default to 0 and that MIGHT work but I would always specify. The other inputs could be left unconnected. If you have more than one Talon you have to set the IDs

To set the device ID of the Talon you use a web browser and connect to the IP address of the RoboRIO. 10.xx.xx.20 Where the xx.xx is your team number. The webpage there is easy to use. But I think there are screenstep tutorials for it.

You can create an indicator on the error out terminal and see if the VI reports any errors.
SecStick is not the default name of the joystick in the default code. So check that the driver station does not report any not found errors.

The help calls it device number and device ID in different places which can be confusing.

^ browser settings should be “www.roborio-2386-frc.local”
Use IE or firefox with silverlight plugin.

Set can id to non-zero, and then use that id in begin.vi as suggested.
