Re: RoboRio stopped communicating after 2016 update?

By the way, you know in the movies, when those pesky programmers intentionally leave back doors in the code that the bad guys use to do bad things?

Well, on the setup tab of the DS, where it says to enter your team number, you can also type in a device name or a static IP string. Also, if you click on the V arrow next to that field, it should list all roboRIOs that respond with something that contains your team number. If you shift-click on it, it responds with roboRIOs whether they have your team number or not. Selecting things in the list put them in the field and let you communicate with them.

Please fix the device names for competition robots so they work using only your team number in that field -- that is, if you want it to work at an event.
