Re: Multiple programs/autonomous routines

The manual has this to say in the RC Manual is this:
Quote:
Autonomous Mode means that the RC will ignore all data from the Operator Interface and it will not
require a link with the Operator Interface to execute code.
And the OI manual has this:
Quote:
Operator Interface inputs (joystick, buttons, etc.) are transmitted to the Robot Controller in their
default state(analog inputs at neutral and digital inputs disabled).
• User code is executing.
• User code input, local inputs (switches, pots, etc), including Operator Interface default inputs are
read in by the User processor.
• Robot Controller feedback is transmitted to the Operator Interface.
• For more information on programming Autonomous Mode, see the Programming Reference
Guide.
From this it seems that OI imputs will be ignored as to thier state in autonomous mode, but RC imputs will be read in as they are set. Is it true that an OI switch worked last year, as that would not seem to be that way this time?
