public class Jaguar
extends PWMMotorController
Texas Instruments / Vex Robotics Jaguar Motor Controller as a PWM device.

Note that the Jaguar uses the following bounds for PWM values. These values should work reasonably well for most controllers, but if users experience issues such as asymmetric behavior around the deadband or inability to saturate the controller in either direction, calibration is recommended. The calibration procedure can be found in the Jaguar User Manual available from Vex.

  • 2.310ms = full "forward"
  • 1.550ms = the "high end" of the deadband range
  • 1.507ms = center of the deadband range (off)
  • 1.454ms = the "low end" of the deadband range
  • 0.697ms = full "reverse"
