Autonomous Mode.

Question - I am seeking help for my autonomous mode. I started with the basic structure of the picture below. I removed the arcade drive out and replaced it with a motor control vi. I also added in a relay vi for our feeder. When we test it, the motor turns on for a second and thats it. The relay motor doesn't do anything. What i've been reading, it's the saftey config. Do I need to add in a watchdog to feed and delay? And ideas?

Re: Autonomous Mode.

You just need to add a Disable of the Motor Safety vi before entering the sequence.
You can re-Enable it in the last sequence frame.

The second attachment is a revised Auto for 2012.

Re: Autonomous Mode.

Okay thanks, now will this method work for a motor control?

Re: Autonomous Mode.

A single motor control doesn't have the Safety Config on by default, so it isn't necessary unless you've explicitly added the Safety Config yourself.

Re: Autonomous Mode.

Iv'e always have got my motor to work in autonomous mode but i could never get my relay motor to work in autonomous mode. So hopefully this will work. I cant wait to try it out at regionals.
