Re: How to communicate with the network table from the Dashboard

You seem to be withholding information so I'll have to guess what you mean. You mention extensions, so if you are writing a plugin, you call observable.setData(someDataSpecifierObject) where observable is gotten from the DataCore via getObservable("some/path") inside the registered() method.
However, I somehow doubt that is what you meant and instead are wondering about the UI. In that case, simply use a UI element that supports sending like the sliders or number box, then when running drag/edit them and the value is sent back.
If I guessed incorrectly and you mean something else please clarify what you are trying to do
