Thanks for sharing this work-flow we may try to pursue that... one thing I'd like to know is if the smart dashboard can be developed on off-line. I know I've seen a testing harness available in the past, but that one is out dated. It would be great to be able to interface with the smart dashboard without needing a cRIO present.

Also while I'm here... I'm looking forward to seeing if the Joystick protocol is going to change to use the full HID info. I was thinking of creating an article/feature request about this in terms of being able to use the POV controls on a logitech game pad. I wanted to use that control for this year's game but could not.
