Camera Issue with robot

[krudeboy51]

When ever I plug the Camera into the c-rio An error and enable the robot, we would get a live feed from the camera for like 4 seconds and then for some reason the robot would disconnect from the Driverstation and an error would show up on Windriver saying:


Target Exception:

VxWorks6x_10.3.69.2: Exception in Kernal Task FRC_paramTask:0x231b5b0
at pc=0x198F84

Vector 0x300 : Data Access addr=0x6D5FE50E status=0x3E8

The System has been stopped. Do you want to attach the debugger now?


do any one know how to fix this?

Is that happening with an Axis 206 camera, or the newer M1011?

Did you free the memory first? I just want to make sure...

And yes! attach the debugger. DO you not realize how important of a tool a debugger is? Hence the name DEbugger

[krudeboy51]

Yes, we are using the new M1011 camera, and I have clicked yes to attach the debugger but still nothing, it would not connect back to the driverstation at all. I have tried using the 2011 camera but when its plugged in, and we enable the robot we have no control while we are getting the live feed as if the robot was disabled.

...using the new M1011 camera,...

I don't know if it has anything to do with your problem, but there is apparently a software issue with the provided software and the M1011. See this thread (http://www.chiefdelphi.com/forums/showthread.php?t=90687) for possible hints on fixing it.

I use neither C++ nor the M1011, so I can't verify anything one way or the other.

Does WPILib have exception handling?
That might be helpful...

The tracker is still open, http://firstforge.wpi.edu/sf/go/artf1330. It also wasn't listed as being fixed in the last release. http://firstforge.wpi.edu/sf/frs/do/viewRelease/projects.wpilib/frs.wpilib_c_version_11_0_for_2011_f.frc_c_wpilib_ update_for_2011_f_1

What makes you think the latest update was supposed to fix the problem?

because the proposed vision files were uploaded to firstforge before the update, but even if, there are no instuctions on how to insert the proposed files into the wpi library so I can use it as a reference instead of the one that causes this problem that is now in the wpi library. I have tried the update on that link " http://firstforge.wpi.edu/sf/frs/do/viewRelease/projects.wpilib/frs.wpilib_c_version_11_0_for_2011_f.frc_c_wpilib_ update_for_2011_f_1 " but I still gives a live feed for about 5-6 seconds and then the robot disconnects

I see you've already found this thread which has instructions: http://www.chiefdelphi.com/forums/showthread.php?t=90687&highlight=rebuild+wpilib If the instructions in that thread were not clear, asking specific questions in that thread would be best.
