The program builds successfully, but no amount of movement of the sliders or joysticks will control the speed controllers, which sit there mocking us with a solid orange light. We have tried everything, from older versions of Eclipse to re-imaging the roboRio to update the roboRio hardware. Does anyone have any ideas on why this is happening?
Some more information might be helpful for solving this problem. Could you possibly upload some of the code you were trying to run?
