Re: 2010 Camera and vision problems.

Running the default code that came with this years kit (C++ in windriver) there is no response. Also, the link light on the port that the camera is plugged into on the cRIO doesn't light up.

So far I have tried everything I can think of and I have hit a dead end. Has anyone here had any luck getting the camera working? Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance,

364 is having trouble with theirs. Actually, it sounds like an exact repeat of the problems your team was having.

I don't know the details, but basically the ethernet port lights are off. We've tried a few crossover cables, but none of them are working. The camera works connected to a laptop, and the port works when we connect the router to port 2, so neither the camera or the cRio seems to be broken.

I know we've updated the LabView software and the Dashboard software. The Dashboard update didn't work, so we tried it again, and got it to work.

The last thing I know of is that the cRio is not responding to the Dashboard or something anymore. Something about the Watchdog is stopping.

Anyway, don't quote me on the problems as I wasn't the one messing with it, but I wanted to add another team to the list.

I think we tried everything here. I know this thread was up on the projector the whole time while the programming team tried to sort it out.
