Re: How do you wire a Kick motor in labview?

Ok heres whats happening.

We are using a motor to pullback a bar, using a dogleg, once it clears the gap, it lets go of the tension and kicks back. Kindof like when you use your foot and bend your knee ato kick something.

What I want to do is build a program where a robot moves forward, kicks a ball, moves forward, kicks a ball, moves forward, kicks a ball. I have it set up so it moves forward, but I dont know if I have it set up right to kick it.

Now, the team want me to devise 3 Autonomous modes. 1 code for each starting position. We can determine which one we want to use by flipping one of three switches on a box to on.

The thing is I dont know how to relate that to programing.

I do know that I have to make 1 of the three I/O true, ant the other two False. Then I need to take the one that is true, and make that ones Autonomous ode pop us and run.

But I dont know how to do that.

RIght now I am work on a possible idea of using elcusive or's to detrmine which one is true. But I would like it to work smoothly and my inexperiance isn't going to help with that. so any help from the pro's is nice

Thx, any help is appreciated
