Windriver won't connect to cRIO target

[dowster]

Every time i try to setup the cRIO as a target the initial connection to it times out. I have tried multiple times with no success. Here is the guide I'm using: http://wpilib.screenstepslive.com/s/...iver-workbench

1) Make sure you've imaged the cRIO for C++
2) Make sure your IP is set to 10.XX.YY.ZZ where XXYY is your four digit team number and ZZ is anything not in use on the network (the cRIO is .2 and the D-Link if in use is .1, the camera is .11, a computer configured by the DS software is .5 wired and .9 wireless).
3) Try turning off any firewall on the PC

Is there an error that you're seeing? Are you trying to connect using the debugger or just the "Deploy" option from the menu? Deploy just uses FTP to the cRIO and it's easier to get working. Just be sure to set the team number and the path to the .OUT file from your project into the FRC Preferences in Workbench.

If you are following those instructions correctly there should be any problems with connecting to the cRIO, unless from something outside like windows firewall problems, or previous internet connection. Also make sure when you are setting your target server connections, use the cRIO II connection if you have the newer (as in the last couple years) version of the cRIO (under Kernel Image File.) Timing out isn't really an issue we have had in the past, if that is your problem, but usually our connection errors come from doing the steps out of order, or skipping something really simple

Thank you, I had forgotten that I had to re-image the cRIO for C++ (we had it on LabView.....). Also had to disable the firewall.

Thanks to everyone for the quick responses.
