So yesterday I updated to RobotC 3.08 with the provided Worlds master firmware (due to our cortex having the green light issue) installed via RobotC. I did a quick compile and test yesterday and it worked, so I just turned it off and let it be.
Today I actually did some programming, and we had issues with the VEXnet disconnecting at very periodic times (sometimes a few minutes, sometimes a few seconds).
However, towards the end of the day, the Cortex’s VEXnet light would decide to flash a slow red, requiring a power cycle. Usually it would require a couple minutes’ wait after the cycle, but sometimes it would work the first time. But after it disconnected a time or two, it would resume to a slow red. A few times it was a quick red double flash on VEXnet, yet still requiring a power cycle.
It would connect and work sometimes, and other times it wouldn’t even get to the rapid flashing (attempt to connect) before it flashed red.
I don’t know if this is relevant, but once when trying to reinstall the master firmware and once when powering the cortex on, our arm motors would twitch a bit.
What is causing this issue?
Thanks,
Stephen
