Re: Labview Joystick Buttons...

Ok, here we go.

I have two examples.

One is of the standard code altered so that pressing Button 1 would simulate moving the joystick to one side of the x-axis:



This next example get rid of the standard drive code completely and replaces it with a system in which Button 4 and Button 5 contol a left and right motors (respectively) to either on or off. (So like on our practice base, Button 4 would turn one side when pressed, Button 5 the other):



Ok, so as you've probably noticed, the key is this little guy:


This function converts a boolean value to a numerical value, 0 or 1 (0 false, true 1) It can be found by opening the functions palette and going to: Programming > Boolean and selecting "Boolean To (0,1)".

I think that's what you guys are looking for. If you have any more question just ask!

Good Luck!
