Re: cRIO imaging issue
 

Ours is not showing modules either. It pings, seems to format just fine with the imaging tool. Shows up like all is well in NI Max. I even deployed a simple Lab View robotic program onto it. It returned no errors. When I bring up the drive station however, it does not recognize it. I have tried everything I have read in these threads so far to no avail. Even spent several hours with NI Tech support on the phone. Our 4 slot cRio is brand new. This was my second day spent trying to get the modules to show up. Help!

Re: cRIO imaging issue
 

Ok, we are starting to see the same problems. Never saw this in beta.

Directly connecting to the cRIO was not working. The imaging tool would take an extremely long time to find the cRIO. It was not identifying the modules at all: they remained blank on the cRIO picture on the imaging tool.

Attempted imaging resulted in getting stuck at the Rebooting..... point, requiring a trip to the task manager to stop the imaging. After this, when restarting the reimaging tool the image would show as 'not known'.

We rebooted the robot a number of times, tried with and without the gaming adapter in place, and tried two different computers. Then, suddenly, it 'just worked'. I can't point to anything that fixed the problem.

Re: cRIO imaging issue
 

We imaged 2 cRIOs this year. One had last years image, and the other one was blank( FIRST choice). We used a cross-over cable. If I remember correctly, this is important because the cRIO cannot auto-switch. I don't remember which IP we used, but it was the one assigned by the driver station. The imaging tool found both cRIOs, and we imaged them in less than five minutes. (Not at the same time mind you).

I might never trust a procedure that might brick a device to a wireless connection or a dlink connection, and will always trust my handy crossover cable. If you look up a cross-over cable, you can find out the wire pattern, and label yours so you can easily find it.

Cross-over cables make no sense in this application. :rolleyes:
The laptop you do the imaging from IS auto-sensing and it only takes one.
