We are putting our robot into autonomous mode by setting the tean number to 0 on the OI, yanking out the tether cable, and resetting.
We know that it's running the autonomous function in user_routines_fast.c, because we can put a printf in there and it'll print.

However.

If we put ANY statement controlling the pwm's-- no matter how simple-- our victors refuse to do anything but blink orange.
Even if we put
pwm01 = pwm02 = pwm03 = pwm04 = 255;
LIGHTS DON'T CHANGE... and if we hook a fan up to any of them, it doesn't spin.

Any ideas? The lights on the victors DO change when you're in autonomous, right?

ummm... printf does not run during autonomous ! i would suggest building a dongle, look up white papers on how to do this... its fairly easy... if ur in a hurry grab one of those 13pin (?) competition port size cable plug it in and short the right wires
