So Cal Teams Control System Help

[ChrisH]

This message is for teams in the Southern California area who have not configured their 2009 Control System yet.

The BeachBots are offering to help teams configure their system on Jan 10 and 11. Teams can sign up for these sessions at the USC Kickoff or by contacting me through this forum. Full details will be available at the remote Kickoff.

FRC Driver's station is frozon on the KwikByte Start up screen any suggestions on how to proceed? The students may have put a flash drive with a autoplay on it or loss power during an update.

Any suggestions?

When you say "formatting the CRIO", what exactly do you mean? What tool are you using to do it? Where and when is the error code #60 appearing, and is there any other text accompanying it?

[seanl]

it occurred in the labview imaging tool when we were trying to put the new CRIO image on it. it First did extracting... then Connecting... then formatting but before it can finish formatting it gave error #60 and just stopped, i dont have the exact text but i can get it when i go to class in about 30 mins.

Check out this thread here http://www.chiefdelphi.com/forums/sh...938#post785938

it discusses what error 60 means

Error 60 is listed as network address is currently in use. Troubleshooting the network stuff isn't my forte, but maybe that helps you.

Here are other procedural things that have helped other teams in the past.

Hook the cRIO directly to the PC, not through the DS, router or any sort of switch.

Turn off firewalls.

Turn off other enet cards, wifi cards, and other things that could confuse the routing as the cRIO IP moves around during the formatting process.

Try the formatting on anther computer (typically the failure was due to one of the previous two, and sometimes this is easier).

Pay careful attention to the DIP switches. Flipping them on to get the cRIO IP reset may then cause problems as you try to reimage.

Oh yeah, so far I have recommended switching to another computer more than once and it has resolved issues. So you can always give that a try.
