Re: Is it the cRio or the Code?

That's unfortunate
Do you get any sort of diagnostics on the driver station message windows?

My desktop has a "Setup Axis Camera" icon which is very similar to the icon for re-imaging. When I open it, it tells me that "Unable to complete operation because of unexpected error %d:
%s63 TCP Open Connection in Axis Issue HTTP Request with Authentication.vi->Axis Issue Get.vi->Axis Create FRC User.vi->Dialog.vi"

Is this Setup important by any chance?
This utility was the prescribed (documented) way to configure the camera last year. This year the documentation gives the manual procedure. I'm not sure if that's due to problems with the utility and the different cameras out there, or if the settings being configured are actually different.

I think if you wanted to try to use that, you'd need to factory reset the camera again to default settings. You also need to wire the camera directly to your laptop and have the laptop's IP address set appropriately (different than you would set your laptop up to in order to talk to the robot/cRIO).
