Communication issues?

What happens if you manually delete the existing .out file and rebuild?

Firstly, I'm glad that something is working properly :D You mean the *.out file in the IDE? The same thing happens when I delete it. I'm thinking I may need to FTP wipe the thing from the cRIO... I'm working on my FileZilla skills, but I haven't got a robot to test on at... 12:30am.... Thanks for the reply!

Here's an update. We finally properly deleted the *.out file from WindRiver, and I believe we may have caused new problems in our search to find the original issue. Now, there is no flashing light on the Digital Sidecar, no errors in the build, and no gyro reading (yes!). For some odd reason, when we re-image the cRIO (which we've done quite a few times in the last day or so), the module which connects to the Digital Sidecar is now red, where it was green before in the same location (slot 3). According to the control system information:

Any red modules are either missing or not installed in the correct slot

...so does that mean we burnt out or damaged the module? Thanks!

The normal location for the Digital module (where the Digital Sidecar attaches) is slot 2.

Slot 3 is for the pneumatics module.
