How do I reimage a crio

[kawalla]

I'm new and our head programmer (only guy who knows how to do this (re-image the crio)) isn't here

and we have a problem where we need to re-image our crio after every time we turn it off for an extended period of time

apparently this isn't that big of a deal except for the fact that no one knows how to re-image it

could anyone tell me how to re-image a crio

[aechmtwash11]

connect a laptop that has the NI FRC C-Rio Imaging Tool to the c-rio port one with an ethernet cable.

Select the newest image

Select Programming type/Other options

Enter Team number

Hit re-image

(haven't done this in a while, but this should be close to what you have to do)

All the documentation you should need is here also you will have to download the new images in the updates that came out on the Feb.20th, Good luck!

Updates you need to re-image to the current image. (Without these you will not be able to run in competition.) I believe that the new version is v28

I think what you are wanting to do (assuming you have the newest image on the crio) is have your code run at start up. To do this you open your project, go down to build specifications (in project explorer, expand RT CompactRIO Target, Should be at the bottom of the project explorer), left click on build specifications, right click on FRC Robot Boot-up Deployment, select build. After it has built, connect to ethernet port one on the crio, left click build specifications, right click FRC Robot Boot-up Deployment, select run as start up. This should make your robot code stay on the crio.
