Re: Camera not showing up in dashboard when connected to Crio

You can do image processing anywhere with it plugged into the DLink as you had it before. There is no particular reason to be plugging it directly into the cRIO.
The cRIO can request images from the camera just like the Driver Station does. The images come in via Ethernet either way.

If you really, really want to plug the camera into the cRIO port 2 for some strange reason, then the Driver Station must be changed to ask for images from the cRIO, and the cRIO code must be changed to forward images to the Driver Station. That'll slow the image stream down though. It's much more efficient to have the camera out on the general network and let both the Driver Station and cRIO request images from it there.
