Programming progress 2013

January 8th. Installed copious amounts of updates. Installed new driver station and dashboard. Installed windriver. Installed crio imaging tool. Installed camera setup. Lots of installing

does the crio communicate with the driver station?

Don't have a crio at my house, and there wasn't one in the kit of parts. Should there have been one in the kit of parts?

there is supposed to be a 4-slot crio in the green tote, according to the checklist found on the FIRST website http://www.usfirst.org/roboticsprograms/frc/kit-of-parts

Isn't the green tote for rookies only?

yeah non rookie teams get the black bin only, couple of motors and the gyro, rookie teams also get the green bin in addition to those listed above

the ciro might be a good idea to add to the list of parts w need to order, as we dont want to take it off the order bot.

Yes, I cannot begin programming without a crio.

The crio is a good amount of cash with the modules, about $450 I think. If we have the headroom, it would be nice to grab another one.

right, my bad, noone else was on at the time so I checked but i was in too much of a rush to think clearly...or read properly, as it would seem

Configured robot radio. Successfully compiled Sprockets 2013 base code (basic formatting and a standard tank drive) in windriver. In order to complete the configuration of windriver I will need to image the crio. I need to know if we are using an old crio or if we have the extra money to buy a new one. It would be a pain to image 2 crios.

I think we need to use one of the old ones at this point.

Implemented camera targeting code which is ready for testing. Skeleton of pyramid climbing code written. Added various utility functions.

Configured cRio.
Discovered problems with the robot running code. Motors ran unexpectedly for unknown reasons.

Recently a chief delphi post was posted in which another team is experiencing the same problem. I'm not ruling out that it's code but to save me hours of debugging are we 100% sure that everything is hooked up properly? Additionally with further investigation and talking to Brendan I am sure that the problem has nothing to do with the crio. Finally I'm 99% sure it isn't code because we had one of the wheels working but unfortunately the wheel wasn't mounted properly.

Haven't updated in a while, so here's everything that works up to date.
- Drive works
- Compressor code works
- Potentiometer works
- Servos work

Great job!
