AXIS M1013 how to get image on dashboard?

[Greg McKaskle]

If the example works with the camera, that would imply that the camera IP is correct.

You asked how the BuildCamerIP VI works. If you double click, you can open it and see its secrets. If a string is passed into the VI, that is used. Otherwise, it runs the StringToIP function with an empty string. With that usage, it returns the robot IP. It then masks the lower byte and ORs in an 11. The final step is to format the integer into a string with decimal format.

One other thing I'd check with the dashboard is to make sure that you run the driver station. It is the driver station that tells the dashboard which robot is being used. The dashboard then starts the connection to the camera at 10.te.am.11.

Driver station and the toggle button is on. I still can't get image, it's annoying.

Let me rephrase what I've done.

I've tried many things but couldn't accomplish what I want to. Our robot is done, all the other codes for motors, sensors and pneumatics are ready, we can control all of them with joysticks via robot radio.

However when it comes to the camera, we couldn't get image on dashboard. Our camera actually works. We successfully configured it and wired to robot radio and 5V output on PDB. When we run the "Camera Performance.VI" it runs and we can get live image on the front panel successfully.

However, when we run our robot main code, open the driver station, dashboard, enable and press the toggle button on the dashboard to run the camera, nothing is changing and we can't see live image on the left. As far as I learnt above, I don't need to change any code in my robot project to run camera, because I connect the camera via robot radio.

Last year, our programmer couldn't run the camera, neither. ( http://www.chiefdelphi.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=113049 ) His problem was different, but after that we ordered new camera this year(1013), but still have problems with running camera. As a team, we really wonder why we can't make it for 2 years.

Btw, we tried doing whole process in a different computer, too, but the result is the same: no image...

These are what I did and what I know. It seems like I miss something, but couldn't find it. What am I doing wrong or what am i missing?
Thanks from now.
