Re: How is an autonomous code suppose to look in the Begin.vi and Finish.vi?

If you can train your users to hit the Finish button on the panel, then Finish is a fine place to place the shutdown. But as the season progresses, that seems to become less and less common. I'd suggest putting it into multiple locations. If the HW doesn't have its own button that can be programmed for shutdown, you can certainly mount your own on near the robot breaker and have the cRIO monitor it. Ultimately, that seems the best bet for general use.
