Re: Why is Mode light RED?

Test mode bypasses your normal code control and turns the mode light on the roboRIO red.
It is for running separate independent tests.
Look for the Test.vi under Team Code in the LabVIEW project explorer window. You can add your own specialized tests in there and it has an example to get you started.

Your user control code is only going to work while the robot is in Teleop mode (or Practice mode during it's 135 second Teleop -by default).
Driver controls also don't work in Autonomous mode.
