Just got a set of smart field controllers. I’ve wired them per the diagram at the link below (with EoL craptops in place of rPi’s), but when I have TM running the field control does not recognize TM as Connected.
When TM is not connected the home screen will have the “auton” and “driver” buttons enabled and the clock display in the upper left corner will generally be gray indicating it has not been set. Using the “Auton” or “Driver” on screen buttons allows the standard 0:15 and 1:45 duration match phases to be manually run (VexU times not supported as yet).
When TM is connected, indication will be shown on the home screen and the buttons will be disabled.
I seem to be stuck in the gap between those two paragraphs. Is there something I need to do in TM to chose this type of field contol?
I have current TM on the server, current vexOS on the field brains.
Where did you order them? I thought they were not available yet. Got a link to the product page?
So when you connect via usb directly to a laptop (I used a Mac), and then start TM, you will be given options of port to connect to. You have to select from the Assigned field list the port, and then you will get the option to save and continue.
It is a User Experience confusion in the interface. Not the best. I have not tried it with multiple V5 Brains and USB to laptop.
