CD Labview folks,
The Driver Station PWM display doesn't seem to work properly out of the box (base software). Last year I found this display to be very helpful in debugging. Has anyone figured out what the trick is to reenable this feature for 2012?

There's a bug on the robot side.
It's defaulting to looking at the second Digital Module.

Open up Build Dashboard Data.vi
Look for the +1 feeding DIO Ref Open and remove it.

Nope, the C++ side has no built in Dashboard code. There is a Dashboard example that might help though.

If you open Robot Main, it is called on the right side of the main loop. Or you can open the Team Code folder in the project window and locate it there.
