Sending Data from Dashboard to Robot?
Hey Chief Delphi,

Head Programmer from 3878 here.

I want to be able to send a number value set by a control on the dashboard to be usable in Teleop.vi on our robot. I want the ability to set a motor's speed through the dashboard. I was thinking of using UDP to send the numeric data to the robot, but I do not know how I would go about such a task. How would I retrieve the data on the robot (possibly using Periodic Tasks?) and be able to access it in Teleop?

This is really stumping me. Could someone help us with this?

Thanks very much,
Chris
