A caveat of using slot 6 instead of 4, is that your robot signal light will not work. It is hardcoded to use the DIO in slot 4.

We discovered this too, which is why we replaced our cRio with a loaner, and our broken cRio is in route to NI to get fixed before the Championship.

I'm curious to know how difficult it is to get the RSL to blink from slot 6. I believe it is possible but it involves rewriting some of the libraries.
