Chantilly Robotics Code for 2012 FRC Challenge

This project contains all of FIRST Team 612 Chantilly Robotics' code for the 2012 FRC Challenge.

Usage

For now, this project assumes that you already have ucpp installed and configured for your system. The build process is as follows:

$ ucpp init               #run once
$ ucpp configure          #run each time the files in the project have changed
$ make                    #compile and link all code (debug)
$ make DEBUG_MODE=0       #compile and link all code (release)
$ make deploy             #deploy code to robot

For more information regarding ucpp, see 'ucpp.rst'.

Configuring

• Some configuration is required on the cRIO to get everything to work. First, when imaging it is necessary to select the option for WindRiver C++, and please enable NetConsole (except for in perhaps release builds).

• Remember that the cRIO runs an ftp server that allows anonymous ftp access.

• Second, for NetConsole to work ni-rt.ini needs to have the DNS and default gateway set to the router. The default is 10.6.12.1, and, though this works on the field, it will not allow NetConsole to work for debugging. The subnet mask of computer running NetConsole must also be set to 255.0.0.0 (not the more intuitive 255.255.255.0).

  • Again, without these changes, the robot will still DRIVE fine.

• FOR NOW, the robot REQUIRES version 30 of the firmware. This WILL change come build season, though!

• Be sure to undo any/all changes to ni-rt.ini before going onto the field!!!
