Re: NI Pneumatics Module "sputtering"

We have never had a Watchdog issue, at all. The DashBoard has no effect whatsoever on the Watchdog, since it runs on the Classmate not the cRio. The classmate has plenty of power for DriverStation and DashBoard.

You are not confined to Teleop and Periodic Tasks, you can put code in Main. We have a separate VI for each main function called from Main, each VI handles its own loop timing and such. This puts almost nothing in Teleop, allowing it to run and feed the watchdog.
