Update: able to ping the cRIO, still not able to connect or download to it. New error:
Failed to connect to 10.23.93.2 (Registry localhost) failed to connect target
Possibly caused by: runtime information undefined or uncatchable, TOS library support for target OS “6.3” cannot be loaded
How are the DIPs supposed to be set up?
In normal operation all DIP switches are off, you may want to leave the console out on if you have the serial cable connected.

Error when trying to update the cRIO:
Unable to complete operation because of unexpected error 54:

Edit: Realized we had the DIPs backwards: new error: Unable to complete operation because of unexpected error 1:

Crossover czble and XP laptop: all is fix’d now
Edit: Still won’t connect in windriver; still says backend is disconnected. i can ping, but cant connect. crossover cable doesnt change anything, except allowing me to connect with the Re imager

Can you fire up a command window in your PC, and post the output
of ipconfig /all and route print? Thanks.
I’m sorry, maybe it’s implied in one of your posts, but it’s not clear to me that you’ve been able to reimage your cRio properly.
Have you seen this post – about using a switch/hub instead of a x-over cable?
I have the same problem that the other guy had toward the end of his when i get the error:
Failed to launch target server
possibly caused by backend not connected.
and for me the X-over cable did not change anything either.
when i ran route print my netmask was 0.00.00.0, and network connection was 0.00.00.0, my gateway was 10.13.18.2, and it said metric was 20.
We are using a Crio from last year where we had it programmed for C++. Last week we used Crio Imaging Tool to try and set it to Java, but it won’t connect. Tries and Times out. We are connected via ethernet and a router. ie pc to router, and crio to router. We can ping the Crio ethernet address from the pc.
Last year at the competition we had issues upgrading the latest version on a second Crio as we had the Can Jaguar software mods and that didn’t allow us to update. Someone thought there was a checksum issue so it didn’t connect and didn’t give us a checksum error. I don’t remember if that looked like a connection issue too. But I’ve just found the update instructions so I can try backing that fix out and then see if we may connect. I’m hoping that is all we need to do.
Where may we find how to reformat the Crio? If we do can we then update to the latest version or do we need to start with an earlier version and update one version at a time?
I can’t find anything on the Crio switches either is there a post with how the Crio works anywhere? I tried downloading the pdf from usfirst site for hardware descriptions but that link causes firefox to hang on all of my home computers. I can’t even copy the link as Firefox has to be aborted using task manager.
As far as I know the only thing we needed to do to get the cRIO update working was remove the CAN plugin.
To reformat the cRIO, in the imaging tool you used to switch to Java, there should be a checkbox that says something along the lines of “Reformat cRIO”. Check that and you should get a few more boxes available to select an image. If you have all of the programming updates installed on your computer, I believe the v20 image will be shown in the selection box. Make sure it is set to format to team #211 and language is Java (if you want to keep that).
Also, formatting the cRIO is equivalent to updating it. The only way to send an update to the cRIO is through a reformat.
With the switches the only one you really need to know about for this is the SAFE MODE switch. If you’re still having troubles with this update, flip that and try again. Afterwards I believe you need to flip it back to off and perform the update a second time.
Correct. With the safe mode switch on, the only thing the imaging tool can do is format the cRIO. You must switch it back off and reboot it to actually install the update.
