Java to Crio Downloading Issues

[jesusrambo]

Open up your netbeans settings, click the miscellaneous tab, click the FRC Java tab, and set your team number in there.

thanks, we have done that and will test it in a few hours. I will respond back if it works.
when we set it in netbeans we got set remote address to (10.17.43.2) which i am going to assume is correct?

also...
using command prompt and the ipconfig command,

we have the:
IPv4 - 10.10.12.154
subnet - 255.255.0.0
default gateway 10.10.0.1

we are team 1743 so i know it should read (10.17.43.6) there...

but i am unaware of what it should correctly read.... Can someone post up an accurate example of exactly how it should be?

What is your exact setup? If you use the wireless router on the robot as an access point, you don't need to configure the default gateway on your computer. Disable DHCP on the router and manually change your address to 10.17.43.x, where x is an integer 0~255 and not 1, 2, 4 or 6, or 11 (to be safe).

so we fixed the ip address issue (thanks for the help)

now we got another issue (lol)

we are getting an error where it says looking for frc_2012_v43.zip but got frc_2011_v28.zip

we tried looking for where it is calling for this file path but we couldn't find it... our netbeans is updated to the fullest and has all of the plug-ins installed...

Two things you should try:
1. Update your cRio flashing utility. The 2012 version has some major changes done to it.
2. Uninstall, reinstall the plugins in netbeans. Those plugins *should* contain the cRio image files.

[austin1743]

ok the flash utility is just the cRio imager correct?

our netbeans is currently up to date with all of 2012's updates for frc.

will keep you guys informed..


we are using wired connection right now and trying to get that set-up before wireless...

[jesusrambo]

Correct, reimaging the cRIO should solve the versioning error.

[austin1743]

thanks, i will do this first thing before we do anything else.

i will keep you guys informed more tomorrow. Time for some sleep in this robotics season before crunch time.

You kidding? That's what the Mountain Dew is for

[austin1743]

no im not kidding, hehe stocking up on mountain dew now... hehe crunch time starts in the final week

how long does this cRio imaging process take? before it only took us a couple minutes...

Up to 5 minutes. Shouldn't take any longer than that.

[austin1743]

we have been imaging for 2 hours now.... continues to say formating cRio...

i dont think this is normal...

[Patrick Chiang]

Something is definitely wrong if it's taking more than an hour. Try connecting back to the cRio. If you can't connect back to it, then it's somewhat likely that it's bricked. If you can connect back to it, try the re-image thing again.

My only three guesses for what possibly happened is:
1. You were flashing it thru a wireless connection?
2. The cRio lost power midway through formatting?
3. The cRio was faulty?

[austin1743]

well i got it to the right image... (by doing what you said)

our next problem is no robot communication... for this is i:


cycled power
reimaged it 2 times
checked to make sure ip addresss set-up correctly (they are)
made sure ethernet cord is properly attached (wired connection entire time)

any other suggestions?

[jesusrambo]

Both IP addresses? Are you able to ping it?

Did you image it with the right IP address?

Are it and your computer on the same IP range (10.xx.yy.zz where xx and yy make your team number), with the computer's subnet set to 255.255.255.0?
