Yes. Listed in Update #12 are 4 things we need to make sure are updated:


Software/Firmware Revision
Labview for FRC Update 3.0a and newer
cRIO FPGA Image FRC_2009_v11.zip and newer
WPI Robotics Library 3.0.1718 and newer
Driver Station 2009-02-010a3 and newer

These were updated in Update #12 (the ones in RED)

Do we update the WPI Library if we are using Labview?
When I clicked the above link it said C/C++.

We did update the DS last night and it worked.

I see the correct Labview update we did.

How do I tell if I have
cRIO FPGA Image FRC_2009_v11.zip and newer?
If I need it where do i GET IT?



Do we do all these things:
Came from above link.

You only need to update WPILib if you are programming in C/C++

Another major change is the no wireless except on the competition field.

This means tethered in the pits and on the practice fields. Make sure you have access to the ethernet port on the cRIO. We had to move ours to make it easier to plug/unplug as we came back to the pits at Suffield Shakedown.

So now I go off to buy a long ethernet cable for practice.

Our team has the same question. (See also Update #13.) How are you guys planning to scout without wifi?

I expect we'll do it the same way we always do: clipboard, paper, and pencil.
