PreviousFirmware ReleasesNextPracticing At Home

Last updated 3 months ago

Overview

Starting in the VH-109 1.2.0 firmware release, teams will be able to validate RF performance in regard to their mounting configuration on their robot.

An RF performance indicator is displayed in both "Robot Radio" and "Access Point" modes.

When configured as an access point, additional details are displayed.

Connection Quality

The connection quality levels are as follows:

Quality Level
Pass/Fail

Excellent (4 Bars)

Pass

Good (3 Bars)

Pass

Caution (2 Bars)

Pass

Warning (1 Bar)

Fail

When using a VH-109 in the team access point mode, ensure that the VH-109 is oriented such that the LEDs are facing toward the field and ethernet ports are facing toward the Red and Blue alliance stations. The VH-109 in the team access point mode should be placed at the scoring table position at an elevated position using the stand provided in the VH-109 -> VH-113 Conversion Kit

Navigate to the configuration page assigned to the team number at http://10.XX.YY.4/

When "Warning" is displayed, your radio MUST be moved to ensure a competitive experience during a match.

The connection quality for the link should be "Excellent" or "Good". When "Caution" is displayed often, try an alternative mounting location for your radio based on the guide.
