No Battery Voltage

[Rion Atkinson]

I do appologize if this is in the wrong spot, I'm in a kind of hurry. (I have 7 hours until I have to get ready to leave for the Regional again tomorrow) Along for any spelling errors, as I do not have a mouse and have gotten this far using only a keyboard. By the way, the "Forum" doesn't show as a link with "tabbed" to... made things kinda hard.

Anyhoo, onto the good stuff. We have almost completely passed inspection, except for one fault. The Battery Voltage will not show. (It reads 00.0V) I know that the voltage gets all the way to the module on the CRio. Past that I don;t know how to tell. The CRio is indeed getting power, and we are connected. We have switched out the modules, and switch the chips on them (On the off chance on chip was bad and one module was bad.) We then asked the NI rep to help us out. She rechecked everything, and decided that our CRio may be bad. We checked out a spare CRIo from the spare parts. No difference. It's still reading 00.0V She suggested that we uninstall the DS program and reinstall just in case. The programmer is currently doing that, but we wont know if it works until tomorrow.

My question to you is, if this reinstall does not work. What else could be the cause? (We are tethered directly to the robot.)

Thank you for your time,
Rion
