Re: Initializing autonomous mode

I had the same question once, but i managed to figure it out.
In the OI you can see that you have many ports, and one of those ports is the competition port, through the competition port the referis can stop your robot and activate autonomous. You can make a simulation of the initiation messing with that port.
Here is a link that tells you how:

http://www.innovationfirst.com/FIRST...umentation.htm

it takes to the documentation of innovationfirst.
Click in the link that says "Competition port pin-out guide".
That should help you.

Have fun!!!

Re: Initializing autonomous mode

Just to summarize as I understand it:

During the time before the match, the RC is ...
  • Powered On
  • Radios Active
  • Programming running
  • Disabled

I'm not sure if there is a set standard as to whether or not it is in "operator" or "autonomous" mode; with a dongle -- it is possible to change that mode setting while the robot is disabled.

Re: Initializing autonomous mode

as the docs say: USE EXTREME CAUTION!!! Some pins on the Competition port go DRECTLY to the processor
