LabVIEW loses connection with roboRIO immediately after deploying program

[jfabellera]

Describe the bug
When running a robot project in LabVIEW, it will seemingly deploy correctly then immediately end and say that it lost connection to the RIO.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Create a new robot project in LV
2. Set team number/target address
3. Open Robot Main.vi
4. Run
5. Once the it is done deploying, Robot Main.vi will show that it is running for half a second and then LV will have a pop up saying it lost connection with the target, stopping the program.

Expected behavior
Robot Main.vi should continue running and the target should not disconnect

Additional context

• I talked with Greg, and we found that a work around for this right now is to run WPI_DriverStationStart Communication.vi (found in Robot Main.vi) first and that will initialize communication correctly, and you should be able to run Robot Main.vi fine after that. This will need to be repeated when the RIO is power cycled.

  This is the VI:
