So I am failing to understand the custom dashboard. I have made the project and have gone through tutorial 6 and 7 in the LABVIEW programming guide. I just don't understand how to get it onto the Classmate.

Their are three files on the classmate that you need to replace.
Go to your project and build the project, next right click and explore the files.
You should get three files (the first named FRC Dashboard and two others).
next find those files on the C drive and replace the ones that are there with yours (make sure the names match what was their before)

yes, it is done on the classmate or what ever computer you're going to use the dashboard on

OK but the classmate doesn't have labview to open the dashboard project

What language are you using to program?
if you are using another language just copy the three files to the classmate but the classmate needs LV to run the dashboard and driver station and it should have came with it.

The LV development environment is needed to modify and build a new LV dashboard. You then put the dashboard executable into the Program Files/FRC Driver Station directory and naming it Driver Station.exe. To run the built driver station, you only need the runtime engine installed.

OK, then just copy the files on to a flash drive and replace the ones on the computer with your custom one
