Exclamation Programming Ball Feeder and Launcher

I need help programming the Ball Feeder and the Launcher to go clockwise. Im stuck on how to start. I need to program the window motor to the feeder and the fiser price motor to the launcher. I know this is vague, but if anyone has any suggestions I would really appreciate it. Thank you.

Re: Programming Ball Feeder and Launcher

The MotorControl Set Output VIs take inputs ranging from -1 to 1, with -1 being full speed in one direction and 1 being full speed in another, depending on if the motors are inverted. All single motors use the same VI pallete, so you shouldn't need to specify a Fisher-Price or window motor in the code

Re: Programming Ball Feeder and Launcher

The link isnt working. And do you have a generic code for programming these motors?

There are plenty of generic examples for motor programming in the FRC Examples. You can get to them by clicking the Find FRC Examples option in the Support tab, when you first open LabVIEW.

Try this. You need something in Begin, Teleop, and Finish.
