Voltage doesn't display

The voltage on our Driver Station doesn't display correctly, all is says in 00.00V

Is there an extra code I was supposed to load on or something?

Re: Voltage doesn't display

You must have the analog input in the cRIO, and you must
put the little jumper on that connects the battery voltage to
analog input 8. Not only is it a good idea, it is required by
the rules.

See page 22 of the Control System Component Datasheets

Re: Voltage doesn't display

The jumper is on the analog breakout board, which should be installed on the analog module in slot 1. Also make sure there is power to the analog breakout board. It should be connected to a 12 volt outlet of the power distribution board and make sure it has a breaker and that the wires to the PD board are inserted properly.

Re: Voltage doesn't display

Our team followed the explicit rules yet ours shows 0.00 as well. Anyone know the reasoning for this?

And yes, all directions were followed and triple checked by our elec engineer as well.

The system is reporting zero volts. What voltage do you measure on the power connection on the Analog Breakout? Is its green LED lit?
