Go to Post I think a lifetime of learning properly and then teaching others and inspiring the youth is more important to myself at least than being on the news for a couple seconds during a voice over. - Elgin Clock [more]

FRC Java on Mac OS X

Hi everyone,

I've heard from other robotics members that this is the best place to go for help, which I need a lot of. I never really thought of myself as on the robotics team at my school, but I did occasionally come to help out with mechanical things since I have friends on the team. I can program well and most of my friends know that, but I wasn't really interested in being on the program team because of the people on it. Evidentially, the programming team is being extremely secretive and blatantly refuses to test coding, so the head of our robotics team asked me to program the robot.

I feel fairly confident about programming the robot in Java, since I already know how to program in Java and all of the documentation seems easy enough to understand. What I cannot seem to figure out, is how to connect to the cRIO on my Mac so that I can upload the program to the robot.

The cRIO might not even have the right image on it, but I don't know how I can update that either. I tried to connect and set up a network (Netbeans even said I was on the right subnet), but it just won't connect. I would prefer to connect to it over Mac because that's what I prefer, but I also have Windows XP and 7 running on parallels on my computer, so I could connect with that too. I haven't been able to find any information about connecting to the cRIO on Mac, and the only information I've been able to find about imaging the cRIO requires LabView, which no one even seems to know where it is.

Please help me by pointing me in the right direction or telling me how to connect to the cRIO. This is very frustrating. I tried to setup a network over ethernet with a router and made my computer the host, but it didn't work. I even tried using a cross over cable, but Netbeans refuses to connect.

Sorry that my post is so long, but I figure it's better to articulate all the struggles I'm having now rather than being asked later.

Thank you ver much
