A List of Problems

Anyone know how to set the target, using Wind River example?

Take a look at the C Programming Guide for FRC.pdf to see if that helps you.
It's located on your laptop at: C:\WindRiver\docs\extensions\FRC
Starting on page 13 it describes how to setup the environment and download a program.

An updated copy was installed with the latest Wind River update (http://www.usfirst.org/frccontrolsystem ).

One of the things you need to do is to go to Windows on the top menu bar and select Preferences.
Under Preferences you'll see "FIRST Downloader Preferences" and in there you need to set your team number, and find the ".out" file that your example generates. You can locate it by drilling down through your project files in the Wind River Project Explorer in the upper left window.
The .out will be under whatever project directory you've made. Mine happens to be C:\WindRiver\2009. For instance, I have a Simple Template project and the .out is buried under: C:\WindRiver\2009\SimpleTemplate\PPC603gnu\SimpleT emplate\debug\SimpleTemplate.out

Which of the examples are you using? An FRC one or one of the others that runs a generic C++ program on your PC?

We have a problem.

Okay, when I saw the problem I went through and made sure everything was connected, everything powered, the dongle in enabled, ect...

The problem is that when we turn on everything, with the DS on and tethered to the cRIO, the victor884s blink the orange light, yes the DS is enabled, and yes we have updated the firmware on the DS, and re-imaged the cRIO, and updated LabView on our comp, and set up the wireless bridge even. The PWM cables are in 1 & 2, ethernet in port 1 to port 1, ect... I was going to call FIRST tech service, but I wanted to come here, see if there were any suggestions on what might be wrong so if anyone can lend a suggestion to what the problem may be, please let us know, ty!

That sounds like you haven't permanently downloaded a program using the top menu bar FIRST -> Download to put your program on the cRIO.

What you describe is what you get if the cRIO isn't running a program.

You might have accidentally zapped your driver station and/or cRIO
