How are you downloading it? The procedure for deploying an application to run on startup differs for LabVIEW and WindRiver environments; which are you using?

The 2 jaguars are blinking green...

Check again. If they're really blinking green with the Driver Station saying "No Code" or "No Comms", something is seriously wrong.

Also one team member wanted to know if we are suppose to have a backup battery pack like previous years. If not, what replaced it?

The Power Distribution board has voltage boost supplies to run the cRIO and the wireless adapter.

Robot runs fine if we use the wires connected to the battery, without using the driver station at all. If that helps anyone with helping us.

I'm obviously not understanding you properly, because I can't think of any way for a robot to "run fine" with no Driver Station connected.
