Hello, I am the one who Reverse Engineered the Vex On-Line Code for EasyC 2.x, mainly because more users of Vex seem to have Version 2.x, but also because the Vex version of the On-Line Code for EasyC Pro seems broken (see
Post 23).
Have you tried the FRC On-Line Code and On-Line Window in EasyC Pro (v3.0)??
I don't have access to the FRC Controller right now, but you might load up the FRC On-Line Code and On-Line Window in EasyC Pro and see what Inputs and Outputs do what.
Better yet would be get a LOG of the Data coming from the FRC Robot Controller. You can do that by making a "Serial Port Sniffer", or to load the FRC On-Line Code and On-Line Window in EasyC Pro, get it it communicating, then Use the Task Manager to kill the EasyC On-Line Window and Load a Serial Terminal Program, with settings at 115200, 8N1. Don't close the On-Line Window with the "Close" Button or the Exit, because it will send the Stop Command to the FRC Controller (I assume this because it does to the Vex Controller).
I can easily merge the changes I made to the Vex Default Code to the FRC Default Code and change it to the EasyC Pro style messages, but I don't know if the Data Format is correct.
