Re: Team Fusion #364, Bayou Regional, FMS Woes

Everyone,

The executive summary with Fusion is, "All is well with 364 ... and we hope it stays this way." Fortunately and unfortunately, we found nothing wrong with 364's robot during our test runs. Here is the summary of test runs. A "(C)" denotes that the team was receiving camera video at the player station.

Test 1: 364 runs match by themself
Result 1: Normal operations

Test 2: R1-1429(C); R2-bypassed; R3-bypassed; B1-2936(C); B2-364(C); B3-118 (C)
Result 2: Normal operations

Test 3: R1-118(C); R2-1429(C); R3-bypassed; B1-364(C); B2-3847(C); B3-bypassed
Result 3: Normal operations

Test 4: R1-bypass; R2-118(C); R3-bypassed; B1-364(C); B2-3847(C); B3-bypassed
Result 4: 118 dies after being enabled for hybrid mode - Watchdog not fed - similar to what was seen in Connecticut; 364 & 3847 ran without issues

Test 5 (Same as Test 4): R1-bypass; R2-118(C); R3-bypassed; B1-364(C); B2-3847(C); B3-bypassed
Result 5: Normal operations

Test 6: R1-bypassed; R2-bypassed; R3-3103 (C); B1-364(C); B2-118(2xC); B3-418(C)
Result 6: Normal operations

Test 7: R1-2882(C); R2-364(C); R3-bypassed; B1-118(2xC); B2-647(C); B3-2585(C)
Result 7: Normal operations

At this point, we concluded the tests and declared 364's robot good-to-go. They have run a handful of times since the tests without issue; I'll let 364 update everyone with the specifics. The FTA, Jonathan, and his crew were awesome during all of these tests.

Finally, the engineer in me wanted to find a smoking gun with 364's robot but the other part of me is happy to hope that all will be well .... after all, it is the Easter season.

We'll keep everyone updated as the Lone Star Regional progresses,
Lucien
