I’m the lead programmer over at Team 3556 based out of Lake City, and I have a problem that completely perplexes me.
When plugging the camera directly to the computer, we get a feed, however when running the camera through the cRIO port 2…nothing. I’ve looked through the code over and over again, but I can’t find anything and after hours of looking online…I have resolved to ask for help.
Begin.vi
Vision Processing.vi
Dashboard Project
The camera normally (in 2012) plugs into the robot bridge/ap DLink, not the cRIO port 2.
With an IP address of 10.xx.yy.11 and an Administrator user account/password of FRC / FRC
Both the Dashboard and the cRIO are setup to request images that way by default.
The default code is setup for this. You just need to change back to “True”
To have the cRIO request images then echo them to the Dashboard you will have to add cRIO code that forwards the images.
See, therein lies yet another problem. Our D-Link=Dead.
Is there anyway for us to at least “test” the camera through port 2?
According to https://decibel.ni.com/content/thread/11629?tstart=0 you also need to call WPI_CameraSend Images To PC Loop.vi
Maybe once you get it working, you could write a guide for other people having the same problems.
Where would we put that vi in the project code? Would it then replace existing code?
