Are you sure you just didn't blow the fuse? Remember the compressor spike needs a breaker not a fuse.

I volunteered last year at an event where I had to update many, many team's cRIOs and DSes for them, since they had not done so. It takes a lot of time (for various reasons, up to 20 / 30 minutes if things went wrong) and you'll get the same updates everyone else has, just later and with a required code reload. PLEASE upload code updates. They often don't cause errors.

Four days left, and our robot is coming along beautifully. We (the programmers) have the practice bot and only have a few bugs to work out, and electrical has the comp bot just about wired up. Can't wait for the first competition!
