Similar Rules
Rule R716
R716 *Don’t alter the CAN bus. No device that interferes with, alters, or blocks communications among the roboRIO and the PDP/PDH, PCMs/PHs, and/or CAN motor controllers on the bus will be permitted.
Rule R714
R714 *Control CAN motor controllers from the roboRIO. Each CAN motor controller must be controlled with enable/disable inputs sourced from the roboRIO and passed via either a PWM (wired per R713) or CAN bus (either directly or daisy-chained via another CAN bus device) signal, but both shall not be wired simultaneously on the same device.
Rule R715
R715 *Control PCM, PH, and Servo Hub from roboRIO. Each PCM, PH, and Servo Hub must be controlled with signal inputs sourced from the roboRIO and passed via a CAN bus connection from the built-in CAN on the roboRIO (either directly or daisy-chained via another CAN bus device).
Rule R701
R701 *Control the ROBOT with a roboRIO. ROBOTS must be controlled via 1 programmable NI roboRIO or roboRIO 2.0 (P/N am3000 or am3000a, both versions referred to throughout this manual as “roboRIO”), with image version 2025_v2.0 or later.
