Re: Comments/Complaints on NI control system

By the way, a team (thanks 397) showed me this weekend that you can enable your robot on a tether even during FMS lockout by using the F1 key. You can then disable with the spacebar. I haven't tried it yet with our robot, but I saw them enable their robot with the big FMS Lockout on the screen. I asked how they did it, and they told me about the F1/spacebar thing.

And Dave: don't you guys have the STOP button? Also, the spacebar works as a fast disable, but you have to train yourself to do it so you don't forget when the important time comes.
