Sending values to the dashboard in LabVIEW is very easy. If you are using the default dashboard, use the Smart Dashboard Write vi to send the value to the name "DB/Slider 0". Then when the robot is running, open up the default dashboard and switch to the Basic tab and your number should be in the top number output. It gets a bit more complicated if you want to use a custom dashboard, but if all you need is that one number then that's not really necessary.
We can't seem to find the "Smart Dashboard Write vi." Where would it be located?
