Option A: Use
an encoder to convert a given value to binary and read the buttons as a binary input.
Option B: Use analog input on "joystick" and just break it up into ranges.
Option C: Put the control in software on the Driver Station Dashboard and the robot doesn't start auto until it receives its directions.
We typically use Option C, particularly as we had at least three different settings to configure each match (goal, position, defense).
