Re: Problem with losing communication while on the field.
Look for intermittent shorts between the robot chassis and the cRIO or camera chassis. Use a multimeter to determine whether your chassis is electrically connected to any of the robot's wiring.

If the cRIO or camera momentarily touch a chassis that is connected to a voltage other than ground, the power supplies will probably reset.
