Control System Issues

[Mastonevich]

DS:
We were using the regular dashboard.

It is a Win7 machine. We use it as programming laptop and our driver station. It is a pretty beefy machine with a SSD harddrive. Windriver and the DS were probably the only thing running at the time, but I can't say for sure.

We did have interesting issue that day. We use C++. The students tried reverting the code in wind river. The deleted the project, but they didn't delete the files from the file system. They then imported old code with the same project name. Who knows what happens as far as the class files on the system and how it produces the .out file from that point. It may have been possible to trigger from that, but I am skeptical. I am going to try to recreate this scenario sometime and see if we can recreate the issue.

Sidecar:
Our sidecar is in the middle of our robot surrounded by lots of other robot stuff. If I remember at Alamo, I will try to take a picture and post.

@Greg, yes it is like shooting in the dark with issues like this. Hopefully this will bring some awareness and others can take down more details if it happens to them.
