Can you view the webcam from the TCP connection?

Hi,

I have been struggling to get the USB Camera to work with the RoboRIO for a long time. Now that I see that the new game has many obstacles that make it hard for the driver to see, I desperately want the camera to work. I was reading the Game Manual for this year and I saw under 2.4 Section this:

Quote:
A. TCP 1180: Camera data from the roboRIO to the Driver Station (DS) when the camera is connected the roboRIO via USB, bi-directional.
So that got me wondering if I could do roboRIO-4480.local:1180 and see if the camera itself isn't working? Also, we have the Logitech C270, is the light supposed to turn green on the webcam when you turn on the robot? Our webcam doesn't(but it does when you use it on a computer).

Many thanks! Can't wait to start building the actual robot!
