Re: Why is Mode light RED?

Just to add. Initiatively, test has the motors disabled and lets you hand-manipulate sensors and switches and view their values. The enable button also works, and at that point your periodic tasks code, if you have any, is running, and you can independently set actuator values.

So you can have test VIs that then drive an output and read sensors to verify operation of a mechanism. This can be quite useful after a repair.
