Re: cRio not being recognized

The slots for the modules have changed this year to make the image sharable between the new/old cRIOs.

The two required are:
Slot 1 = Analog
Slot 2 = Digital (for the sidecar)

Optional ones vary depending on the CRIO model, but for the older cRIO are:
Slot 3 = solenoid (optional-red is okay if you aren't planning to use it)
Slot 4 = unused
Slot 5 = second Analog
Slot 6 = second Digital
Slot 7 = second Solenoid
Slot 8 = unused


This also changes how the code addresses these modules.
If you used the defaults and didn't explicitly specify the module, then your code should be okay.
If you do specify the module, then it's no longer by Slot #, it's by the occurrence of the type of module, i.e., the first Digital module is module 1 (although it's in Slot 2), while the second digtal module is 2 (although it's in Slot 6).
