Re: Updating Dashboard values from robot.
My interpretation of the Dashboard VI names and Context Help leads me to believe that the Dashboard VIs are not for use in the Dashboard code, but in the robot code. This also matches with the default text of the Dashboard. So the Read xxxx(where xxxx is string, number, bool, what have you) reads the value from the Dashboard and the Write xxx (same as before) writes to the Dashboard. I haven't had a chance to see if this is the case, if anyone can confirm or deny this let please me know.
