Re: Encoder resolution on fast turning shafts

If you look at "roboRIO Specifications" linked from here (https://decibel.ni.com/content/docs/DOC-30419), in the Digital I/O section on page 4, it references "minimum pulse width". That's the...

Re: Encoder resolution on fast turning shafts

While much of that discussion still holds to some extent, much of it is not all that applicable given the roboRIO's vastly faster DIO, unless you have a blindingly fast encoder signal.

Re: Encoder resolution on fast turning shafts

The roboRIO FPGA can track encoder edges at 25 ns from edge to edge. It will also calculate and report rates at the same resolution. I suspect this is more capability than any team needs, but I'm...

Re: After rebooting RoboRIO, no robot code until restart code.

Memory is getting corrupted by a bad parameter in the DS object in the HAL. There will hopefully be a release before long that will address the issue. Until then, the workaround should keep teams...

Re: Send a Message to Driver Station

You just have to print to console out. It gets directed to the messages window in the DS this year.

Re: GRIP/Labview compatibility?

The LabVIEW vision support has shipped with Vision Builder AI for years. GRIP is not compatible with LabVIEW, but VBAI has and continues to serve the same purpose as GRIP now does for Java and C++.

Re: Got Gyro drift? Try Sensor Fusion !

If you actually installed the FRC update then you would have these VIs. You could then use those VIs to understand the API that FRC uses so that you can port to the other USB I2C API.

I would...

Re: Failed to Deploy, File Permission Error

How interesting. I just started seeing this too - but in the 2016 beta. We'll get to the bottom of it, but in the mean time, you can work around it by going to a Linux shell and changing the owner of...

Re: Labview Challenge 3

I threw together a quick starting point for the interaction with a board UI. There is no game logic behind it, just the board itself.

Hope that helps.

Re: Custom roboRIO HAL: Where to find C library for roboRIO fpga?

You might try this tool on our website:

However, it doesn't support fixed-point or structured registers, so it won't generate a...

Re: Custom roboRIO HAL: Where to find C library for roboRIO fpga?

Those C bindings are for a different FPGA image running on the roboRIO. That API and that FPGA are designed to closely mimic the myRIO counterparts. This will certainly be updated in future years (it...

Re: Labview keeps messing up ethernet settings

This is all old news. You never have indicated what version of LabVIEW or the driver station you are running, but from the evidence, it is at least a year old.

Re: 2015 Beta Testing - The Components are Here.

Hi Joe,

Do you think you have the DS log for this match that you could attach or send to me?

Thanks,

Re: Brownout behavior - alternative design goals

That's contradictory and not how it will work. And anyway, if you have no comms how does FMS disabling do any good. You have no comms.

No, we will continue to have the designed behavior that the...

Re: Brownout behavior - alternative design goals

Disabling motors is a totally different thing than being commanded to disable by the field. The FMS is wrong and its behavior will be changed.

Re: Brownout behavior - alternative design goals

That's the result of a poor behavior of the FMS. It should be improved next year to not cause auto to restart.

Re: Brownout behavior - alternative design goals

They do not drop. Separate regulator. The internal pulls on all DIO / I2C / SPI lines are connected to the internal 3.3 V supply that is fed by the boost supply in roboRIO.

Re: Brownout behavior - alternative design goals

The point of having it "high" at 6.8 V is to have some breathing room to get those loads turned off in time for the battery to recover before the controller blacks out. Since we don't have control...

Re: Brownout behavior - alternative design goals

The level is actually set by a hardware comparator. However it is likely that a work around could be implemented in the FPGA if needed.
