Re: RoboRio Image help

The URL you posted was not for re-imaging the RoboRIO. This one is for the firmware via the web interface: http://wpilib.screenstepslive.com/s/...borio-firmware

This one is for the operating system via the imaging tool: http://wpilib.screenstepslive.com/s/...g-your-roborio

I'm pretty sure you need to do the firmware first. Make sure you don't have a password on your RoboRIO; that will screw up the imaging tool upgrade.

Re: RoboRio Image help

Yeah, so I tried to use your first link to update the firmware, but the firmware that I have on my computer is the one from 2015 so it's already the one on the roborio. My problem is that even though I've downloaded the 2016 update suite, I can't seem to find the proper 2016 firmware update for the roborio.

Re: RoboRio Image help

Firmware (web interface upgrade) should be in:

C:\Program Files (x86)\National Instruments\Shared\Firmware\cRIO\76F2\

You should see roboRIO_3.0.0f0.cfg in there. If not, you haven't installed the NI Update properly.

For the imaging tool, you need to go to:

C:\Program Files (x86)\National Instruments\LabVIEW 2015\project\roboRIO Tool\

If you don't see FRC_roboRIO_2016_v19 in the FRC Images folder, you haven't installed the NI Update properly.

You'll find the imaging tool there and the FRC images. ScreenSteps is wrong when it said LabVIEW 2014.

Re: RoboRio Image help

So evidently I have not installed the NI Update correctly, but I did follow everything that the website said, and I did it 6 times. I guess I'm making the same mistake every time??? Yikes.

Thanks for your help, by the way!

Re: RoboRio Image help

I would uninstall any NI-related software on your machine and reinstall the NI update.

Make sure this is the one you are using: http://www.ni.com/download/first-rob...-2016/5773/en/

You're welcome!

Re: RoboRio Image help

Re: RoboRio Image help

Hi guys,

So I uninstalled everything and redownloaded the file from the website that you told me to, but unfortunately I don't even have a Firmware folder nor a LabVIEW 2015 (I have LV 2014 and LV 2013) folder in my Nat'l instruments folder. So whatever is wrong is still wrong.

Am I just incredibly stupid? Has anyone else had this problem? I followed the instructions to the letter and yet... unless I somehow screwed up extracting a zip file...
