OI PWM Lights blink red but still works?

[SpeakerSilenced]

It is starting to be a big concern on my team that ever since we started programming away from default code in the OI the Pwm lights hae been blinking red and sometimes green but rarely.

The controls still work fine, same with triggers... but its just weird its doing that... Any ideas?

It sounds like you have the default vision code loaded but no camera plugged in. If your not using the vision code then I don't think there is any thing in the non-vision default code that would do this unless there is a firmware level problem which sounds highly unlikely.

Yes that is correct. IF you are not using your camera, you can disable the camera code by going to project->build options->project and removing the _USE_CMU_CAMERA definition

on the OI the lights are supposed to blink when the joystick reaches minimum/maximum/center state,at least in the 2.2 code(the one withought the camera code)

This is without the camera code too, they just blink red every 2 seconds, the controls still work. it might be the camera though...
