Re: labVIEW joystick connection issues
Ok, I'm Carl's teacher/coach/programming-overseer/whatever. Maybe I can clarify a little what we've tried.
When we did the whole "select all"/copy/paste in regards to the joystick/motor blocks of code, we changed all the names of one set to "Joystick 2" and ".... Motor 2..." and all. The vi's that are part of the section were opened and saved with "2" in the name.
I just found the "Tank Drive" block. (Yeah, yeah, LabView isn't high on my list of favorite programming environments but Eclipse won't deploy to the cRio so we are going with LV at the moment). I tried plugging it in place of the Arcade Drive block. That was an interesting change of effects -- now, I get nothing when I push the one working stick forward or backward, but it pulses now when we push it in any other direction.
I'd like to get this driving for a show-and-tell tonight, but I'm about to pull what hair I have out over this.
We are plugged into PWM2 which is actually sending working signals to the motor controller. PWM1 and PWM3 .....not so much. Tell me what pics you want to see and we will take them.
