RoboRIO unrecoverable error after Battery went flat.

Solved!
Go to solution

Some Bonehead left our Robot powered up over the course of a few days (Of course it was me...)

 

When we returned to it on Saturday, and dicovered it was dead, so we replaced the battery,but it was not responding to us.  We followed the various guides to attempt to put it into safe mode, but it will not enumerate as a USB device, we cannot communicate via ETH, no Wireless communication.

 

The Current Status of the Lights is:

 

Power Light:  Green Solid

Status:  Flashing continuously

RSL:  Solid Amber

 

Help please!

Does anyone have a solution for this?  This is our only RoboRIO, we are dead in the water until we get this running.

 

Thanks!

Thanks for posting. If your RoboRIO is refusing to enter safe mode, we can attempt factory re-image. I'll send you details in a DM.

The recovery was quite simple, we did need to use a powered USB hub to get the RoboRIO to see the recovery drive.

 

Thanks mshafer!
