Hybrid Mode Help

[ShotgunNinja]

Hello. I am my team's website guy and, new to this year, programmer. I have ROBOTC 1.14 installed on the team comp, and I (somewhat) grasp the coding language, but I am having problems with the hybrid mode. Here are some of my questions:

- How would I interface with the hybrid mode controls? (We are using a standard TV remote)
- Can I still utilize the Code Template that came along with the ROBOTC program? (void main(), task Autonomous(), task Human_Control())
- Does the ROBOTC language allow typedef structs like ANSI C does?
- Why does the compiler hate me so much?

here, check this thread (http://www.chiefdelphi.com/forums/showthread.php?t=61899) out. it really helped me and let me do what i wanted to do with the programming. Good Luck.

Hi ShotgunNinja

If you wanted to interface with the Hybrid Mode with the IR, we actually have a sample to do. Here's the code for the Initialization and Autonomous Sections:


#include "FRC_Comp_Include.c"

void Initialization()
{
bMotorReflected[port2] = true; //Reflect Motor
frcDigitalIODirection[pio3] = dirInput; //IR Output 1 on Digital IO 3
frcDigitalIODirection[pio4] = dirInput; //IR Output 2 on Digital IO 4
frcDigitalIODirection[pio5] = dirInput; //IR Output 3 on Digital IO 5
frcDigitalIODirection[pio6] = dirInput; //IR Output 4 on Digital IO 6
}

task Autonomous()
{
int IRswitch1;
int IRswitch2;
int IRswitch3;
int IRswitch4;

while(true)
{
IRswitch1 = frcDigitalIOValue[pio3]; //Update Variables
IRswitch2 = frcDigitalIOValue[pio4]; //So we can see status in the Debugger
IRswitch3 = frcDigitalIOValue[pio5];
IRswitch4 = frcDigitalIOValue[pio6];

if(IRswitch1 == 1) //If Switch 1 is pressed (it pulses, doesn't remain on)
{
motor[port1] = 50;
motor[port2] = 50;
}

if(IRswitch2 == 1) //If Switch 2 is pressed
{
motor[port1] = 0;
motor[port2] = 0;
}

if(IRswitch3 == 1) //If Switch 3 is pressed
{
motor[port1] = -50;
motor[port2] = 50;
}

if(IRswitch4 == 1) //If Switch 4 is pressed
{
motor[port1] = 50;
motor[port2] = -50;
}
}
}


Yes, You can use Typedef structs like ANSI C.

What issues are you having with the compiler?

I recommend you take a look at some of the support/samples we have at the ROBOTC website: http://robotc.net/ifi/frc/support.htm

Hello!

I am the mentor of team 2669 from Kiryat Yam, Israel.

We stand behind the Hybrid4all initiative aimed at helping teams get started with their autonomous mode.

Here is a link to a presentation explaining about the basics.
