Thanks.
I did in fact add a connector to the Teleop.vi and tried to connect the shift register in robot main. I was able to put the shift register on the while loop in robot main, but I have a single connection point in the teleop.vi when it seems I should have 2 connections (one for each side of the shift register). I am a little confused as the timer value passes through one of my case structures (tapped off to check stored time against current time) and I am not sure what labview 'part' to connect to the input and output of the timer value passing in and out of Teleop.vi (I have an Enum connection on the input side, but I'm pretty sure that is incorrect).
As far as your suggestion for 'private' data, that would be fine as well. I did not have a while loop within teleop. Can I just put a while loop around the teleop 'execute', default case statement in and run the while loop continuously? Or can I just use the feedback node to pass data within teleop (I could guess on how to do this, but would appreciate help).
In looking at this last night - I didn't want to 'muck' around too much with robot main's modular design, but I am a Labview novice still and I didn't know another way to do this.
