cRIO troubleshooting

[Sconrad]

Although I can't say this would work for sure (haven't tried it yet), plugging the analog breakout chip into another slot of the cRIO might give us analog input. If this does work, battery status could be displayed in user messages by accessing analog input 1, which is devoted to battery voltage monitoring. Anywho, hope this helps anybody who runs into the same problems as we did. If you have any questions on how we did what we did, or general comments on things we might try to get it to work, please reply

Analog Channel 8 is the channel with the battery voltage monitor (voltage divider).
