Re: Using the Old Control System
We just recently started up our 2014 robot, and it worked almost perfectly even with the new driver station. The only difference we found is that the new LabVIEW WPILib no longer supports Cyprus cards through Enhanced IO. Our quick fix was to map all of the buttons on the control panel to buttons on the joystick and ignore the Cyprus card altogether. I would assume that if you look into it you can find a way to make the Cyprus card read as a joystick so you can use it with the 2015 WPI Joystick "class".
Besides that small problem, everything else communicated fine with everything else, and the robot worked just as well (if not better) than it did during the 2014 season.
