Ben Zimmer Posted July 3, 2009 Report Share Posted July 3, 2009 Hi Everyone, I've posted a new TipJar video, giving a summary of the FRC TipJar Videos so far, as a tour of Team 843's FRC code. Although intended primarily for FRC teams and mentors, the ideas may prove helpful to anyone working in LabVIEW. http://www.lvmastery...ipJar2009-07-02 The purpose of this video is not to teach new concepts, but to relate back to ones taught in previous Tip Jars. I discuss: The concept of robustness: good code can be easily modified, debugged, scaled to work in different situations. The Block Diagram, Begin VI, TeleOp VI, Lifter VI, Steering VI, Debugging VI, and Autonomous Independent. The uses of the “Command Signal”: initializing it, writing to it, and reading from it. The use of “Boolean trigger” to have actions take press on joystick button presses only when pressed or released. A consistent and robust approach for programming a robot function VI using a "shifter". How to create and use “Re-entrant VIs” to modularize and reuse code for identical robot subsystems in parallel. How to use the command signal architecture to create a simple autonomous VI which uses the full functionality of your robot code. All the best, Ben __________________ Ben Zimmer email: ben@enabletc.com Phone/Fax: (905) 864-1858 Toll Free: (877) 872-4619 Quote Link to comment
