Re: Need Help With 2009 Control System
You should never need to turn on IP Reset.
As a general rule, the SAFE MODE switch should always be in the OFF position, for both reimaging and general usage. There is one special case where users are required to turn Safe Mode on, and that is if the cRIO is severely corrupted (for instance, if you yank the power in the middle of reimaging) you can use Safe Mode with the imaging tool to reformat the device, after which you can turn SAFE MODE off and run the imaging tool again to set up the system correctly. The problem professorx has run into is a misunderstanding of what the documentation was trying to convey. If you refer to the LabVIEW Robotics Programming Guide for FRC document, available by navigating to the National Instruments\LabVIEW8.5\manuals directory and opening FRC_Programming_Guide.pdf on page 3-5 under the heading "Considerations Before Running the CompactRIO Imaging Tool" it says: Quote:

Re: Need Help With 2009 Control System
I finally got the electronics to work.
We ended up calling National Instruments, the people that made the cRIO, and they told us the problem was that the switches on the cRIO were not in the correct positions. All of the switches were set to on even though it shows in the picture that it's off except for safe mode and ip reset. So basically it was a manufacture problem. The solution was to turn all the switches to the east (right). Important note to other teams: if you really need help with the cRIO and you tried almost everything, please don't hesitate to call them. They get paid to help you. The number is 1-866-511-6285 1-7pm Central and just tell them your team number! (also the number to call to repair or buy more cRIOs) Taken from here: http://forums.usfirst.org/showthread.php?t=10875 Thank you to everyone who has helped me and others! That is what FIRST is all about. Last edited by professorX : 13-01-2009 at 20:41. |
