5226; Bug Fix for Setting Up Analog Inputs on the Slave Controller
Pathfinder

Changes made for Pathfinder 5226 controllers.

If a machine has too much I/O, feedback, etc. a second 5226 controller will be added to accommodate the extra devices. To do this the main controller will talk to the added controller though CAN bus to find out what all of the sensors connected to the second controller are doing. The problem is that the master controller is the only one communicating with Pathfinder so it has to configure the slave controller what port is being used for what. A bug came from this in which the master controller was only setting up one of the four analog input ports. This means that anything plugged into the other three ports would be ignored.

The solution to this problem was to make sure that all analog input ports are configured so that the slave controller can relay the information to the master controller board.
