Re: Cypress Tutorial?

Look at the back of the Cypress board and you'll see the pins labeled that you wire your swiches and potentiometers to:

Wirewrap, a prototype board, or purchasing a special mount from AndyMark can be used to connect your switches.

There's no programming necessary on the Cypress or Driver Station.

If you look on the Driver Station I/O tab you can see if it's working and even change some of the characteristics of how each contact is handled.


In LabVIEW you check your switch settings using:
  • Driver Station Get Digital Input
  • Driver Station Get Analog Input
You'll find them on the block diagram pallete at: WPI Robotics Library -> Driver Station -> Compatibility IO
