What does this mean? The driver station, the dashboard, SmartDashboard, etc?

You say the driver station is connected, does it show that the robot code is deployed? Is it reading the voltage? Can you control the robot?

In lieu of that, I'd suggest turning off the firewall on the driverstation PC to make sure that's not interfering with anything. Install any updates to the software, install windows updates, restart the computer. Make sure the router is configured correctly as well.

Also check all the connections on the robot. Specifically the one between the sidecar and the cRIO and the power connections between the cRIO and the PDB.

(I also second the motion to provide screenshots )

Sorry for the confusion. (Completely my fault.) The drive station, dashboard etc. are all working fine. They say our robot code is deployed and working. However it displays the battery power at 0%, and doesn't give any information on voltage or similar measurements. We also can't control the robot, although we can view through the webcam connected to the cRio. I'll have the team try turning off the firewall, as well as updating our computer and possibly our LabView as well. I can't include any screenshots today, since somebody else has it and is trying to swap out the cRio. Thanks guys.
