Re: How does this robot have addressable LEDs still running when disabled?

the wpi libraries give nice functions for i2c communication as well as Serial (usb) communications.The arduino can also communicate using both of these methods. The only caveat is of course that you will likely have to write the code on both sides to properly interpret messages.

Theres also the fact that i2c and serial dont work very well on the roborio. Last I remember the i2c port on the actual roborio doesnt work and you need to use the mxp i2c pins.
