Hey Guys!! We have a very old robot at our build space, and we are having a hard time connecting to it. It is our 2013 robot from Ultimate Ascent.
We have downloaded the oldest driver station firmware we can find which is the 2014 FRC Driver station which can be downloaded from the NI website.
Whenever we go to connect we simply get errors, no comms, no code, no nothing. Everything is getting power as it should, and I am getting stumped. Windows defender is off, as it would be with current driver station. We have tried connecting over ethernet to the radio, and wirelessly. The best part about it is, we cannot erase it. it has all the original labview code on there which has been lost to time. none of us know how to program in labview anymore, especially not using jaguar motor controllers.
If there is any information I can get regarding this, I will greatly appreciate. It is only me and one other member trying to get this thing chugging again.
Thank you for helping, and if you need any more info let me know I will try my best to get it!
ahhh…they are…something…I will post a picture of the whole robot at some point and show off the beauty of the electrical system on that thing…its a nightmare…however it is all functional… I think lol
Sir you are a godsend! it worked!! The robot sounds horrible and is a disaster in total, however we all would be if we were stuck in a graveyard for a decade lol. Thank you for the help!!
