Custom Dashboard

[jhellr13]

Out of curiosity, would it be possible to add a countdown clock to the dashboard? This would be a great help to avoid having to look up to find the main clock to find the time left in the round. Any suggestions?

Read THIS but know that if you use that teleop elapsed match info cluster (its in the teleop and autonomous code im sure you have seen it) It might not be accurate as it hasn't been in previous years.

I think it is a good idea, provided you keep the other info on field timing in mind.

The LV numeric has a relative time display format which will format into min.sec.frac, and what you'll wire is the result of teleOpLength{seconds} - (currentTime - teleOpStartTime){seconds}.

You can change the font to make things larger.

If you need more help, there is a tutorial on making a custom dashboard available from ni.com/frc, and I believe from frcmastery too.
