Wireless Interface – 802.11Wireless Interface – 802.11 Radio on the robot is 802.11 wireless
bridge Check for how to power it correctly from
your robot You will assign fixed IP addresses to your
components, using team number Use as AP during build season, connect to
the wired field at the competition Field will use 5 GHz band to avoid overlap
and interference

Link between OI and cRIOLink between OI and cRIO Default software causes cRIO and
classmate computer to update each other several times a second
All OI data is fed to cRIO automatically If they don’t talk, your robot disables
itself Status of communication shown in
classmate GUI

802.11 Radio Link802.11 Radio Link The AP and bridge have changed over the
years. Learn how to set static IP addresses on
your PC, and how to log into AP and adapter to configure them manually
Turn off “Wireless Protection”, so that inadvertent presses of external buttons don’t change settings unexpectedly

Other ideas worth rememberingOther ideas worth remembering Solder your terminals – prevent failure Keep large gauge wiring as short as possible Lay your electronics out so you can
troubleshoot it – 2 layers sometimes works Make a battery charging record ◦ During tournaments, know which one is charged
Read the inspection rules early – a great “cheat sheet” for guiding you
Label your wires or use color markings, to make troubleshooting easier
Robot frame is NOT connected to ground
