Driver Station Troubleshooting

Common Issues

Problem	Likely Cause	Fix
Robot won’t enable	Team number mismatch	Check DS team number
“No Robot Communication”	Bad network connection	Check Ethernet or radio power
Brownout events	Low battery voltage	Replace or recharge battery
Laggy control	High CPU usage on DS or roboRIO	Close background apps; check loops

Diagnostics Tools

• Log Viewer in DS to view disconnects and brownouts
• Event Logs folder: %Public%\Documents\FRC\Log Files
• FRC Driver Station Log Viewer (WPILib tool)

Pro Tip: Always review logs after every match — many electrical or network issues show up there first!
