Re: New Axis Camera

Our camera was working before we reimaged the cRIO with the update (mandatory, in Team Update # 7, the same one the OP used). Now, it's not working (no image on the driver station).


As far as we can tell neither the code nor the hardware has changed since we last used the camera successfully, so I am inclined to point the finger at the update. I would like to hear from any other teams who had the camera working before the update, but now have trouble.

Nighterfighter, did your camera work before you updated to the latest cRIO image?


By the way, our camera's ethernet is plugged into port 2 and all that jazz....the green and orange light are both solid, however. The radio ethernet port's orange light is blinking and I'm wondering if the camera port's orange light is supposed to be doing likewise: does anyone know? We didn't think to check the lights when the camera was actually working.

Edit: nevermind, apparently something went wrong the first time I reimaged the cRIO [although it subsequently said it was running the proper image, v. 27....]. I reimaged it again and now the camera works.
