Sending data to the Robot

[dekker120]

ok... so I know that you can send back digital and analog input feeds from the driver station to the robot... but how do you send back a value from within the dashboard.. (i.e. a numeric indicator) to the robot?

The dashboard data connection is unidirectional. Data goes from the robot to the dashboard, but no data goes back from the dashboard to the robot.

If you are not using the Cypress PSoC as part of your controls this year, you might want to look into using Virtual I/O (http://www.chiefdelphi.com/forums/showpost.php?p=895789&postcount=14) to do whatever it is you are trying to do.
