Hey, I'm wondering if I missed something somewhere or just trying to do something that hasn't been documented or released yet... the docs from FIRST seem to indicate that you can plug in a computer into the ethernet port of the driver station to run the dashboard...

there's an example code in C++ that is supposed to upload images from the camera to the dashboard in real time, but I'm not quite sure what we're supposed to be running on the computer that's connected to the DS in order to view it.

Can someone fill me in?

Thanks

LabVIEW has a Dashboard program that runs on your PC.
From the LabVIEW startup screen select "FRC Dashboard Project" to get that going.

The Wind River "FRC Dashboard Data Example" will feed data from the cRIO back to the LabVIEW Dashboard on your PC. The second one "showing images sent from camera on cRIO" does not work as is.

The cRIO image from Update 2 will also send back data from the cRIO as will both LabVIEW Basic/Advanced default Frameworks.
