Hi there!
I would also recommend looking at the stuff that NI has put together for us:
http://www.ni.com/first
In particular take a look at the FRC Getting Started Tutorials, here's a link:
http://decibel.ni.com/content/docs/DOC-2511
I found a lot of that stuff pretty good. There is certainly a lot of material there. Here are a couple of the things I found particularly helpful in understanding how things work and how to modify the defaul code (or "framework") that came with the DVD.
- The "Robotics Library" video
- The "Using Framework" document
are probably good places to start
Also take a look at the "Basic Motor Control"
That should keep you busy for a few hours, but they should be well worth it.
One last thing, if you are totally confused by the concepts of VI's, front panel, block diagram, while loop, wires, terminals, etc (all the LabVIEW terminology), then you may want to go through the
Getting Started with NI LabVIEW tutorials. Here's a link:
http://zone.ni.com/devzone/cda/tut/p/id/7466
These tutorials have nice videos and exercises that make them easy to follow, but keep in mind that these are designed for learning LabVIEW in general (so the examples are not designed for the FRC cRIO robot controller).
I hope this stuff helps...
Good luck!
