The system watchdog will shutdown the robot outputs when the DS communications is interrupted or an estop takes place.
What could cause Driver Station communications to be interrupted?

our team is using UDP to transmit between the Dashboard and the cRIO, which appears to be delaying the watchdog being fed, and interrupting robot communications. the port we're using for the socket isn't being used anywhere else in the code, from what we can see, so what could it be?
