We are Minerva Warriors, and we received our System Core this week. We are planning on making a small version of our current robot with the motors we received. However, we have some problems with the Limelight Hardware Manager.

Question: What steps do we need to take if no devices appear in our "Select Device" list even after refreshing?

Is the device in bootloader mode? It needs to be in order to flash it. Hold down the cfg button while powering on the device, and hold it down for 10 seconds. You should then see the terminal doing a bunch of things.

Do you mean the CONF button next to the power bridge?

[ThadHouse]

Yes

Thank you! Is there an specific color the mode light should be at? Currently is at orange.

[ThadHouse]

The mode light will be off, as will the screen when in this mode. There isn't a separate LED state for the power led to detect it though.

Okay it worked Thanks!

Thanks for your help. Yesterday we were able to finish installing the software, installed the driver station, and were in the midst of trying to create our first sample program.
