Can anybody help us? :]
We were following this tutorial:
https://wpilib.screenstepslive.com/s/4485/m/13811/l/145335-creating-building-and-loading-your-benchtop-test-program
When we try to run Labview main.vi the error message says "Connection failed. The network address might be invalid or the target is not responding."
:confused:

Is your Driver Station app running?
In the Driver Station there are status lights that tell you what can be detected.
It's one of the tabs on the left, the second one down (Diagnostics).
Check those and tell us which ones are green:

Enet Link - means an Ethernet cable is detected
Robot Radio - means the Open Mesh radio is detected
Robot - means the roboRIO is detected


How are you connecting the laptop to the roboRIO?

Ethernet link is the only one that is lit up.
