Re: Not getting robot info on Dashboard (C++)

The dashboard packet needs to be packed explicitly in your C++ program in order for it to be transmitted to 10.xx.yy.6, and hence for the LabVIEW program to see it. You see the battery voltage because that is part of the control data in the packet that the DS uses (it's also part of the DS display).

If you want to get the information from the robot to your dashboard, have a look at the Dashboard example project in WindRiver. Using a Dashboard object, and packing the dashboard as in the example, will allow you to supply the LabVIEW dashboard the information it needs for a full display.
