Re: Driver Station CPU Usage
The log file viewer is still in work. An improved viewer and most likely a corrected DS will be released shortly. In the meantime, perhaps you do not need to worry as much about the CPU usage. Focus on making things that work.

As for how it works ... The OS on the cRIO, VxWorks, has commands for reading the CPU usage of various priorities. The FRC Communication library on the cRIO makes that call and returns the data to the DS to be displayed and logged.
