Re: Autonomous Mode Lessons Learned??

We added a 4-bit BCD thumbwheel switch to the OI to set the autonomous program number. Its a mechanical switch that displays digits 0-9 with buttons to select the value. The value is sent to the robot while its disabled, so the operators can change the value right up to the start of the match. You need to be careful not to check the value during autonomous mode or it will always be zero.
