Arrow Getting Robot Outputs
YEA FIRST POST (and hopefully in the right area)

My team likes outputs, lots and lots of outputs from the robot.
They want to see everything from the motor values to custom switches and additional windows for messages. The ifi loader's window that displays the printfs just wont do! So i set out to make a VB application to split the outputs from the robot and things like that. Unfortunitly when i try and read the comport all i get is two numbers repeating themselves like...
8376837683768376
i added separators so it looked like this....
83|76|83|76|83|76|83|76
How do i get the printf data out of this?!
