Re: labVIEW joystick connection issues

You may also want to try using Test Mode.

With the code running, change the driver station into test mode and on the dashboard click to the Test tab. It will show you the joysticks and motors that have been opened. If you enable the robot on the DS, you can now see the values of the joysticks in the table. See if they change when moved. You can also select the Value of a motor, set the slider to a value and Enable the motor to see if it works using this code. If it doesn't work in test mode, it is either because it wasn't opened properly in Begin, or more likely due to an electrical issue.
