Re: Using the TI LaunchPad from your KoP

As Alan alluded to, your team may need to create a custom Dashboard to achieve what you are looking for.

Thanks guys!
We have no intent on modifying the drivers station code. In fact, even seeing the buttons active on the driver station is not necessary. The biggest concern is that the RoboRio can read those inputs and respond accordingly.
We will work with our programmers to verify that their code can detect the button presses, and respond accordingly.
