Still having Watchdog timeouts??

[JoeyTNT280]

We are still having Watchdog timeouts where our robot will enable/disable rapidly for a few seconds we haven't run our robot at any competions yet but ours is this week and with me being the only programmer and taking ACT/MME this week I cannot devulge much time to fixxing this issue so TnT is in need of a huge and fast quick fix. ASAP.

Have tried it, don't have a definitive answer as I'm not a driver, put compressor START in Auto and TELEOP as well as BEGIN.

Please, don't take bad advice like this...

I'm sorry what does this have to do with my Watchdog errors?

[Mark McLeod]

Do you want to send your project to me for independent testing?
I'm afraid that's all I can offer with your time constraints and without my coming to Michigan...

You can zip it up and post it here if you want several of us to take a look.

[JoeyTNT280]

I will do that as soon as I can get on my laptop thank you.

here is our project

Nothing at all.




If you have explicit delays in Teleop.vi, or if you have long-running loops or extremely busy code, you will risk taking too long before finishing and triggering the Watchdog.

here is our project

We need the whole project folder contents zipped. The master project file doesn't have the code. It just organizes things.

How would I know if my code is too busy?

We are having the same problem. Everytime between auton and teleop we get a watchdog error. There is more information about our problem here: http://www.chiefdelphi.com/forums/showthread.php?t=83980 Is this the same issue you have. We already had our first competition and we only got to compete in two matches because of the watchdog.

If you use Autonomous Independent, a watchdog timeout is not unexpected if the code ends before the 15 seconds is over.

[pfreivald]

We were having watchdog issues, and all we did was add a 50 millisecond wait statement in at the end of our loop, and they all went *poof*.

If you use Autonomous Independent, a watchdog timeout is not unexpected if the code ends before the 15 seconds is over.

Even if we are using the default code without changing anything after making a new project? I'll test it tonight.

[kgzak]

I have tried using Auton Iterative and putting in the 50 ms delay in and we got rid of our watchdog timeouts between auton and teleop, but now we have them later on.

Edit: Nevermind, one time it worked but we are still getting the watchdog.

The project its too big for ChiefDelphi. I could email you the code if you PM me your email address

[Mark McLeod]

Zip attachments can be 5MB
I would have thought that'd be plenty big enough. If you use rar then you can cheat a bit and just renamed it .zip

In any case, I won't be much help now until next week. I'm on a bus on the Mass tnpk for the WPI regional this weekend.

[JoeyTNT280]

It isn't letting me even when I rename it to zip and .zip
