Re: Enabling yields one "Watchdog not fed" flash

If the +5 LED goes out, you probably have a power problem. Is the Digital Sidecar getting a good 12 volts from the Power Distribution board?

The first watchdog message you see might be coming from a timing glitch at the beginning of the camera code. If it only happens the one time, don't worry about it. The other occasional messages you see when you're on the Diagnostic tab are also something you don't need to worry about. (There might be a Driver Station software update that addresses them eventually.)
