An idea

Re: How does disabled mode work?

I have seen the code posted here, and am willing to invest my fix-it window in it. How should I go about modifying the camera's state machine to allow the sending of SV packets. What do I need to watch out for/be aware of?

Has anyone made any headway in this regard?

My most important question is:
If I use the serial connection to adjust the camera servos, am I still able to quickly receive T packets? And must I use the serial connection for SV packets through-out the match, or can I switch over after drivers gain control?

Thanks in advance,

Basically be aware of the fact that once tracking is initiated, the camera state machine isn't doing much of anything except receive while the camera itself constantly sends T packets.

I think that you'd have to rework the state machine to do one of two things. Either constantly cycle through servo command and single-reply color track commands, or set it up to idle the camera, send the SV command, and restart continuous tracking each time you want to change a servo.
