Custom Controller Info

So,

In the years past we have tried to use very pricey and complex controllers with our robot, however since they have > 6 axis and > 12 buttons, it was hit or miss whether the button actually worked. Is there a way to read the buttons, which I would assume is button "13", and use that to control the robot. Would it be possible to read that information off the controller in the driver station and then send it via a separate TCP/UDP packet? And then us it in reverse to access lights and such on the controller?

Thanks

Patrick
