Re: Cannot get Code to Download to cRIO

Hey guys,
I think we've made some progress. We have no gotten the code to download to the cRIO or at least we're under the impression that this is happening. Unfortunately we cannot get the code to execute/get anything useful to happen. Here's a list of what we did:
Problem 1: Stupidly connected the router to the internet
Solution: Disconnect from internet
Problem 2: Your IPs are not set correctly
Solution: In the control system documentation there is a nice little diagram with all the IPs. We just double checked everything and pinged to ensure they were there.
Problem 3: Project did not build correctly
Solution: Try going into WR and selecting Project->clean and rebuild everything
Problem 4: Incorrect download file
Solution: Window->Preferences and check team number and .out file
Problem 5: Do not have proper remote server set
Solution: Look in the FRC documentation, and reset your server settings, then try and connect to the robot.

So we did all of that and we now get the DS to show a voltage which I'm assuming means that we at least have the code file onto the cRIO. Unfortunately it doesn't do anything. We can also see it is there through looking at the remote server thing. We tried to run in debug mode and nothing happened, when we set debug points it throws crazy errors. We've basically hit a wall, we don't know what else to try.
