Enabling the PCM
 
In trying to update the firmware on the PCM through the web dashboard, we encountered a message that said:

Quote:

PCM IS NOT ENABLED! If robot is enabled maybe the id is wrong?
This message showed up when we clicked self-test under the PCM part of the webdash. Both when the robot was disabled and enabled, clicking self-test would give this message.

The device id for the PCM is 0 and this is the only one we have.

If it's important, sometimes self-test will also say the compressor current is too low despite our battery level being over 12V.

Things we tried:
  • According to FRC screensteps live we should rapidly click self-test to clear sticky errors. we did this.
  • The status light on the PCM is blinking slow green, which means it's disabled
  • Reading the entire FRC Screensteps documentation for configuring the PCM
  • Refreshing
  • Turning it off and then on again
  • Updating the roborio's firmware
  • Updating Microsoft Silverlight

Does anyone know how to enable the PCM?

You can ignore that message if you are just setting up the PCM.
It gets displayed in several cases and is just informational. Cases such as when the Driver Station is not Enabled or when no pneumatics user code uses the PCM.

OKay, thanks. We reimaged the roborio and it worked.
