Reading that variable on the cRIO in the Autonomous Independent vi is also straightforward. Use the SD Read Number function. It'll probably arrive as a floating-point value, so you'll have to turn it into an integer before using it as the Selector for a Case Structure.

I need help with connecting the dashboard project (PC dashboard) to the cRio project in order to use a slider that I've completed to set a time value, I basically need to use a slider to set a time delay on a while loop for a motor, the slider has 5 positions now, (Off, wait 2 seconds before running, wait 5 seconds, wait 8 seconds, and wait 11 seconds) these are times we need the autonomous to wait before starting our while loops, I was hoping to use a case structure to control the loop, where if the slider on the dashboard project is set to 1, there is no wait, and each other value sets a wait time before the motor in the while loop runs.I hope that clears it up a little
