Re: [FTC]: NXT Lockups in LabVIEW

The weird thing is that when it happens, the NXT goes into that tick tick tick mode that occurs during a firmware update. The screen just freezes and you need to pull the batteries. Works fine on replacing the batteries.

Before I head down the long road of trying to get this to occur on demand, anyone seen anything similar with a well defined cause? No conjecture or speculation please.....

Phil.
Phil,
Any updates on this? While helping 4314 I encountered the same issue, However this happens very consistently using tether or samantha. I do hear the clicking noise a couple of seconds after enabling the robot.

The code is very basic. The only addition beside regular VI's is the hitechnic prototype board VI to read an analog.

Spent about 2 hours troubleshooting this with no luck.

While I have done some more advanced stuff in labview and I am a fan, The FTC implementation of labview in addition to the NXT has just been bad. And especially horrible this season. Just my opinion.
