Re: Help with programing Tank Drive in Lab View
As far as I know the simplest way would be to replace the "Open 2 Motor" function with and "Open 4 Motor function". The function can be found by opening your function palette and going to: WPI Robotics Library > RobotDrive and selecting "Open 4 Motor".



And then obviously you would have to add constants for the other two motors on the Open 4 Motor function and make sure you have the right PWM's to the right slots. (Pressing ctrl+h to bring up context help and hovering over the Open 4 Motor function should help you figure out what goes where)

Hope that helps!
