Hey Ron,
Want to report on the CAN bus issues you debugged?
That's useful for teams to know, too.

Hey! Yep, will probably take another day or two before the students and I finish pouring over all the runtime data we collected. Preliminarily it looked like stray CANBus exceptions would cause FRC_NetworkCommunication to block, and therefore cause FMS<->DS<->Robot comms issues whenever stray CANBus exceptions would occur - but now looking at all the data we're not sure if this is the case. I told Greg we'd write everything up and send to him and Joe for review.
Quick question on the DS tethering - the students say they were able to tether successfully with the borrowed Classmate and "multiple IP" situation before going on the field......they would have done that to charge the pneumatics since we have an off-board compressor this year. So I'm wondering if the multiple IP problem is a cRIO issue, or an FMS issue?
Anyway, safest procedure is just to check the IP settings!
