Autonomous Help

[DaffyDuck]

I am the lead programmer for my team and even I have no clue as what to change in the autonomous code, if anything, to make our robot to preform certain actions. Please Help. The actions are below. I would appreciate any kind of help, even giving me your code BTW no bump sensors.

Drive forward: 1 sec
Raise Arm: .5 sec
Open Claw: .5 sec
Drive backwards: 1 sec

Greg McKaskle of National Instruments created a vi (a bit of LabVIEW code) that makes what you want to do very easy. Read his post in this thread. If you have specific questions, we'll be happy to answer them.

Also, if you don't want to follow the line using the trackers, you should delete all the default autonomous code (I'd actually suggest renaming it and making a new vi so you can get it back if you need to), because that default code just follows the line and leaves you to do the arm moving. Of course, it's great if you do want to do some line trackin action.
