Re: New C18 3.0+ Compatible FRC Code

Another ADC and Gyro question

We want to use the gyro as well as other analog sensors. It appears that using Process_Gyro_Data() in Teleop_Spin(), for example, will check for ADC result count, read the ADC gyro channel only and then reset the ADC result count without reading any other ADC channels. Is that a problem?

The 2007 Process_Gyro_Data() didn't check for ADC result count or do a reset inside the function, so we read our other channels just after Process_Gyro_Data() and before the reset.

Where should ADC channels for our other sensors be read? Do they need to be read in the fast loop at the same time as the gyro channel is read? (Should we insert more Get_Analog_Result()s in Process_Gyro_Data to read the other channels?)

We're using pots with a PID to control steering etc., and ultrasonic sensors.

Thanks...
