Talon FX software reference manual

Does anyone have a link to the Talon FX software reference manual. When I go on their site, all I find is this online “BLOG” manual. I remember for the SRX they had a far more detailed manual that talked about their API’s. Anyone know where that went or if there is on for the FX?

We are looking for support in LabVIEW but, in the past, we’ve been able to review the C++/JAVA docs and it shreds some light into what API’s can do.

Here’s the old SRX manual

CTRE documentation has largely moved here: https://phoenix-documentation.readthedocs.io/en/latest/index.html

There are also programming examples here:

The actual API docs are linked in the RTD Additional Resources

Here’s Java:

They API docs linked here are the master; the code examples & RTD manual both tend to lag slightly behind.

We must be doing something wrong with our Falcon 500. Trying to set a velocity control loop. Running the velocity closed loop example and the Falcon looks like it is just coasting to a slower speed. Also another weird behavior, when we get position and velocity data, we get no response when the PIDLOOPIDX is set to 0. We get data only when we set it to 1.
