Hi everyone,

We've been using personal laptops to develop vision code for our robot and everything has been fine. However, last night we broke out our driver station computer and it doesn't show an image from our camera. In fact, we get a lot of camera errors on the diagnostics tab of the driver station.

The interesting thing is that when we switch back to a personal laptop, everything is fine. Is there something I'm forgetting here?? The type of computer shouldn't matter.

Thanks for the input.

Check the version of the driver station. If that is not near kickoff for this season, it is likely that both the DS and DB are out of date. Last years DB assumed the camera images were through the cRIO, and this year's defaults to the DLink setup and direct camera access.
