Go to Post I think FIRST is a big trap. They lure you in with these cool competitions and shiny robots and along the way they trick you into learning something :) - =Martin=Taylor= [more]

Re: Pneumatics WiFi issues

Our team has also experienced this, but I have not had it tethered to see if it goes away. From our experiences, it is actually the Cypress PSoC losing connection to the Driver Station for whatever reason, and re-initializing, setting everything to a "false" term for a split second. In our code, we have latching variables, so we sometimes see both our claw and our minibot deployment activate randomly. Once, it nearly took a teammate's knee out because it fired randomly.. Would like to see a fix to this also.

Re: Pneumatics WiFi issues

We had an issue with interference from our school's local WiFi system. The radio was scanning and attempting to use one of the same channels that were being used by the schools network. This was identified by connecting a default reset bridge to a web browser and scanning for all networks. This identified the issue by showing two systems attempting to use the same channel. I just changed the radios in the robot link to use a different channel and the problem went away.

Re: Pneumatics WiFi issues

Do the lights on the cRIO module blink when the solenoids misfire?

If yes, it is a software issue.

If no, it is a hardware issue.

I'm 80% sure it is software.
