Re: Axis 206 Camera issues.

My recollections from the 8 slot crio days. When using the second port on the 8 slot crio, the camera was left with its default IP. The second port on the Crio was on the same subnet (different from the control side 10.xx.xx.2) The dashboard got its camera feed from the crio. So the widget in the dashboard is pointed to the Crios IP. With the camera on the bridge, its IP has to be in the same subnet as everything else. You had to change the camera's IP address in the dashboard widget for it to work. Now days it is default for the current setup. For it to work with the stock dashboard widget its IP address needs to be 10.xx.xx.11. If you go in & edit the widget, you can change the IP & make the camera IP whatever. Go look in the code for the older drive station & you can find the code that pulls the camera image from the Crio. Code on the crio also has to be looking at correct IP address for the camera.

If you are running the 4 slot crio on your competition bot, you really should be using the camera in the same way in your prototyping. A cheap office grade router will work for prototyping & shop testing. Even a $10 switch if you are going wired.
