We’re having difficulties running our code and i really can’t figure out the problem. THe jaguar is showing a fault condition and I’m really unsure what needs to be green on the driver station. Post pics plz??
The I/O tab is only used if you have the Cypress board attached. The Cypress is the best/easiest way to use non-joysticks to control the robot.
A fault condition on the jaguars means over current (stalling), over temperature, under voltage (from battery) or limit switches (make sure yer jumpers are in).
Here’s my method of programing problem solving.
- Run trough your code with a fine tooth comb while electrical checks their wiring.
- When electrical tell you it’s good check your code again.
- When you are sure beyond any doubt that your code is correct check electrical’s work yourself.
- Fix the wiring.
If at any point you find a code error quickly fix it and blame electrical for not giving you enough time to work on the robot.
Not the prettiest way of doing things but it gets the job done.
The Logitech gamepad is probably better/easier for making non-joystick controls, but the Cypress is great for adding custom switches and stuff.
We did both.
