Re: Watch Dog stopping robot from working?

You may want to look for a VI called Loop Time, Loop Timing, or something similar. It is a subVI you can drop into a loop, and since it is called each iteration, it will record info about the rate of the loop. You can then open the subVI at any point and peek at what has been going on.

Additionally, you can wire up a string to different calls in other loops, and instrument as many loops as you care to watch.

There is a small amount of overhead for having this in, and apparently they decided not to put this into the default framework, but it is very handy for issues like this.
