Problems controlling spike

In LabVIEW we have created a victor and are setting the output value to one, but when we measure the output voltage on the spike it is zero volts.

However, within the driver station we have seen a response to the correct PWM.

What value should we be setting the output on the victor in order to make the spike run correctly?

Thanks in advance.

Re: Problems controlling spike

You need to first not call for a victor in your code, but look for the Relay VI set. Open a relay in your begin.vi and close it in the appropriate one, then use the relay code in teleop.vi.

Also, you need to plug your spike into a relay slot on your digital sidecar.

Thank you.

Where can you find the Relay VI set?

Re: Problems controlling spike

I dont have it up in front of me, but i believe it is under the actuators category. Its in the same category as Solenoids.
