YAGSL Checklist

• Yaw increments CoutnerClockWise Positive.

• Pigeon 2.0 is updated to the latest firmware.
• Pigeon 2.0 is updated to a unique CAN ID.

Communication

This device communicated with the roboRIO over the CAN bus and can be paired with the CANivore that way it does not take up bandwidth on the roboRIO's CAN bus. To do this you need to set a name for the CANivore and use that as the canbus name in YAGSL.
