Re: Imaging tool for the new 4-slot cRIO
As Joe said, the image tool looks in the language installation for the image. Each language has an image included so the languages don't have to update in lock-step when new images are shipped.

Re: Imaging tool for the new 4-slot cRIO
A couple of things that helped me find my cRIO and image it.
Finding cRIO with imaging tool 0. Assign static IP address and subnet masks as described above. 1. Disable any other internet connections (i.e. wireless) 2. For Windows XP SP2 turn off all firewalls and auto software updates Format cRIO to latest image (i.e. v43) 1. Use a hub/switch to format. |

Re: Imaging tool for the new 4-slot cRIO
Folks,
We finally made my way through this maze and uploaded my first test code on the FRC II. In addition to all the requirements listed above, you need to add two more: 1. Use a simple switch or hub linked only to the cRIO and your PC. Do not use the Linksys wireless router. 2. DISABLE all Ethernet ports except the hardwired port linked to the hub or switch. Simply turning off the radio is not sufficient, you must disable the port. I hope this helps. I really appreciate the support of the folks in this forum. Good luck.

Re: Imaging tool for the new 4-slot cRIO
Like I said in my previous post, to simplify things to only deal with minimum changes, connect your laptop to the cRIO directly with an ethernet cable (for the old cRIO, connect to port 1 and disconnect port 2). Then you don't have to deal with switches/hub/AP/Bridge.

Re: Imaging tool for the new 4-slot cRIO
Good to know. I am surprise about this though. I understand when the cRIO is rebooting, the link is lost. If the PC ethernet takes time to "recover" and so does the Ethernet switch (reestablishing link to the cRIO). But I suppose most of the swtiches may be able to recover faster than some of the PC ethernet adapters. Also, if the "formatting timeout" is short enough that it doesn't even allow the ethernet adapter to "recover", it's really too short. Any plan to fix this issue in the future?

Re: Imaging tool for the new 4-slot cRIO
We have a rookie kit of parts this year (I have mentored other teams in the past) and ran into this issue. I had already disabled the firewall when I ran across this thread. I first tried fixing the net mask from 255.0.0.0 to 255.255.255.0. That did not fix it. I then disabled the wireless network interface on the classmate and that did the trick.
So a fresh install of the classmate and the 4 slot cRIO out of the box direct connected with a cross over reproduced this same error until we disabled the wireless network interface. I may try putting the net mask back to 255.0.0.0 and see if that changes anything, but it is working now. Not sure if that will help in the trouble shooting or not. Thanks! Randy |

Re: Imaging tool for the new 4-slot cRIO
Just checking -- you don't mean simply that you pressed the button to turn off the wireless radio, right? You actually went into the networking configuration controls in Windows, selected the icon representing the wireless LAN adapter, and chose the menu option to disable it?
