Re: Transmitting data to the cRIO from the Driver's station via TCP/UDP

Also you should set the UDP Write VI net address to your team IP.
That is a good catch, and if we get a chance we will try that, thanks!
My only concern about that is that we were able to send data using our code to the robot so the actual communication was not having problems, and because the open is outside of all loops I don't see how it could have caused the communication indeterminacy/watchdog errors when the communication was working.

We did have the UDP Write VI using our team IP (which we got using the global variable for Robot IP).
