Help Reading Joystick button Values
 

I'm programming our robot in C++, but there is a rookie team in our area to which I am currently providing assistance, and I can't figure out how to read a button value in LabView.

Sorry to ask such a trivial question, but thanks a bunch!

Using a Joystick Get...

• Hover over the Joystick Get icon and you'll see three outputs on the right side. The bottom output is for buttons.
• Put your curser on the button output, right-click and choose Cluster, Class, & Variant Palette -> Unbundle by Name (it's the first choice)
• Place the box you get and wire it to the button output on Joystick Get
• You'll see Button 1 if you did it right. That can be switched to any other button or the box can be expanded to show multiple buttons.
• The button output can then be wired someplace else that uses the value or displays it.
