Re: cRIO 2012 Image to 2011 Image

When you updated the robot to the 2012 image, the old program got wiped out as part of the process.

The robot won't do anything until you download a newly re-built version of your drive code.

If the 2CAN is gone you can still drive using CAN through a serial port connector running from the cRIO serial port to the first Jaguar in the CAN chain. Part of the cRIO imaging processes lets you select which CAN path you will use. As an alternative, you can also switch your drive code to use PWM control.
