Activitybot not storing calibration data

I have the ActivityBot and as I've been trying to calibrate it. It successfully completes the calibration, but then when I try to run the next program to make it run straight, it goes back to calibration. I have checked the connections and changed the batteries, but it still does the same thing. What should I do? Any suggestions would be helpful.

    Welcome to the forums, tl2015.

    First, make certain that you:
    • a) allow the calibration to complete fully: wait to power the robot off until the P26/P27 lights turn off. If it completes successfully, the calibration program is designed so that it will not run again upon re-activation of the robot.
    • b) are downloading the new program to EEPROM (Load EEPROM & Run), not to RAM (Load RAM & Run). If you click Load RAM & Run by mistake, your program will be lost after you turn off the power to the Activity Board.
