Thanks. I didn't know that.
EDIT: My mentor/teacher thinks you are supposed to put all the pins in pwm output section. Is their a way around this that is resonable?

Pretty certain We've done all of that, the setup is the only thing with the name of "axis camera", right? The bridge is just the ethernet thing also, right? Enable button is just the on pushed while in the driver station, right?

I know that. they shrink-wrapped the limit switches though, so I figured it would be easier to change the code. however, reversing the code has no change and I'm not sure why. Should I include my code here?
