2014 Robot With a 2015 Driver Station
 

Hello. I'm trying to get our 2014 robot up and running.

So far, I reconfigured the D-link for private wireless use using the 2015 bridge configuration tool and am able to connect with the robot via wireless. Unfortunately, I have no communication or robot code.

I've heard that the 2015 drive system has a feature in the setup tab that allows it to work with the 2014 CRio but I have also heard that it does not work...

I've also been trying to restore the 2014 driver station to the PC hoping that would work, but every time I get close, I get redirected to either the 2015 or 2013 versions and the one time I found a link to the 2014 Update Suite, the page was taken offline.

I would really appreciate if anyone could help me out in with any of these solutions or give me any new ideas on how to fix this.

Thanks,
Eric Moy

There is indeed a selector on the Setup page for choosing between different protocol versions. It was tested during beta. It does not support Kinect or Cypress, but should work with an 8-slot cRIO or a 4-slot that hasn't been updated to 2015 SW. If you find out otherwise, please report the issue.

So it turns out that the 2015 Driver's Station only works with cRio's with the v57 image.

Also, I managed to find the 2014 NI software after searching the NI forums. Here are the links if anyone needs them:

2014 Update Suite:

2014 NI Software for FRC:

Once I re-installed the 2014 Driver's Station (which can coexist with the 2015 version), communications were excellent.

Are you using LabView or another language?
