Go to Post Now, I either need to convince Mike Martus to start the webhug early (or move it back 1 hour), skip the webhug, miss the first part of the presentation, or just clone myself. - Andy Baker [more]

Re: The 8.2 (or 8.3) Battery Voltage Bug

I tried it a bunch of times last night without triggering it,

However, (1) I only tried it with the tether (the radio modem pair I scrounged up at the clubhouse appears not to be working), and (2) I don't have a backup battery handy, but I did vary the voltage on the backup battery lugs by (a) hooking a +5V signal from the pwm outputs to it, (b) hooking up a 1.5v battery, and (c) hooking up a 9V charger to the pins

I'll try it again today with an actual battery and see if massive repeated uploads of frc_gryo.hex do it.

Was the robot tethered when you had the bug, or was it on the field with the radio?
Both, and oddly, I saw the error about half of the time.
