That's the one I recommend using for robot/team specific data that you really care about.

It's completely unused in the default dashboard and robot framework in order to set it aside exclusively for team use. It's in the WPI->Driver Station palette.

I guess I need to look at this to understand the mechanism.
Our status is being sent to an LED on the Cypress module.
That's done by the DS (not the dashboard... right?)

Can I just speed up that item through the DS, or do I need to send custom data to a custom dashboard and then get it to the Cypress..... I'm so confused...!

I never use the compressor status check or any compressor calls outside of Begin. I like pulling breakers to keep the compressor from running.

Sounds like you got the memo that I missed.
Pulling breakers...... excuse me !!!!!
