That was us. While I don't know the difference between what the 2014 and 2015 FMS is, I can share some light on the situation. We were on the field prepping for a match when the driver station blue screened. When this happened and the dashboard was reopened/relaunched the default was to connect to the 2015 FMS. This is a product of the version of the driver station for the Beta teams. Once the 2014 FMS button was selected it worked as designed. It was an oversight in our part at the time after restarting the driver station.

I don't foresee this being an issue during the competition season, as the 2015 season driver station software will likely only have a 2015 "option". I could be wrong, but that is what I suspect.

And it was my laptop which crashed Regardless, the bug has been fixed and tested at other off season events.
