At our first regionals we couldn't figure out why our team number wouldn't come up on our OI while tethered, but we could still control our robot. I and an IFI guy both double checked our team number settings by doing some binary conversion, and it seemed to match up. We replaced both the OI and RC, tried several tether cables, and were on the verge of giving up when I thought to try something.
Turns out that our team number was set to the bitwise inverse of 341 - we didn't see it because the pattern of on/off was the same, but we failed to realize that on and off were backwards! So we couldn't see any number because the inverse was four-digits long and our OI only had three. Doh! |
