Re: CRio Connection: Buggy

I re-imaged our cRio to v27 first with just NetConsole and then with both NetConsole and CAN Jaguar Black Serial plugin. Of course, now it seems to work. I ran LabView code that was essentially the default FRC cRIO Robot Project modified to drive a single motor using CAN.

From the console log, I did see two troubling messages when the cRIO boots:
interrupt: PCI Error: initiator aborted due to timeout
interrupt: PCI Error: initiator aborted due to timeout

I'm not sure what they mean but the system appeared to work. I was able to deploy and run CAN code. The system crashed once, I think when I was using the System Monitor. In the several times I ran code from LabView I received the Unable to connect to real-time target only once, accompanied by four flashes in the status LED. I didn't see anything in the netConsole at that time.

I'll do more testing tomorrow. The NetConsole log I captured is attached.
