Re: c-RIO connection troubles
Hi Sev,

Are you using wireless or wired to connect from your PC to the cRIO?

The first thing to look at is to open a DOS box (cmd.exe) and do a "route print" command. Do you see a route to 10.0.0.0? If so, can you ping the cRIO? (ping 10.23.92.2 from DOS box). If you can't ping the cRIO, either the cRIO isn't booting or your network isn't set up properly. The IP address of the Classmate should be 10.23.92.5, but you can have any address on the 10.0.0.0 segment (e.g., 10.23.92.10).

Do you have an Ethernet crossover cable? This is highly recommended so you can update the firmware on the cRIO to V19. Also, a serial port with a null-modem cable would be handy so you can talk to the cRIO serial port to make sure nothing's wrong with the cRIO. Does any of this make sense to you?

BTW, where is Team 2392 located? If it's anywhere close to the D.C. metro area, I might be able to get you going in person.

HTH,

Mike
