Comphappy-
I am assuming you have already read the RC-reference guide on IFI. If not it is located
here as a .pdf. I suggest if you haven't done so already you right click and save that file for future reference. One of the most important trouble shooting tools for the RC is on page twelve of the RC reference guide, table 8.3. This outlines what each of the LED color and blink codes on the robot controller means.
The blink codes for the Operator Interface can also be found through IFI, along with other helpful documents at
http://www.ifirobotics.com/oi.shtml . In the OI reference guide, on page fourteen, tables 5.2.1 and 5.2.2 list the blink codes specific to the OI.
If you can't figure out what your blink codes mean, please post a detailed description of exactly which LED's are on and in what color and what the conditions are. I suspect that your problem is related to having your team number properly set, but there may well be a genuine hardware/firmware failure. If that is the case you'll want to contact IFI soon, but first lets make sure that it's not something simple that we can fix online. You didn't mention any red led's, so that means theres a 99.99% chance this isn't anything serious.
Good luck. Let us know what you find out.
