2010:Electrical Main

Master Task List

• Build 2 display boards for the field
• We should hook up a 10k linear trim potentiometer to one of the motor controllers and also hook up one of the smaller motors (like an older window motor) to allow programming work with the position control capabilities that the CAN interface allows them.  See Jaguar Getting Started Guide page 22 for wiring guide.  Note that it expects a 0-3V input!!!
