[FTC]: Tethered/Bluetooth Control

[4946Robotics]

Hello all,
First I would like to introduce me/my team. We are Team 4946 RoboRaiders, based out of U-32 in East Montpelier, VT.

Next, I have a question. We have been using the samantha module for communication between the computer and NXT, but we have been wondering if there is another way to communicate with the NXT, so that we could have 2 robots running at the same time.

I've looked all over, but I have yet to find documentation on communicating with the NXT through bluetooth or a cord. Does anyone have any insight into the matter?

Thanks,
4946 Robotics.

If you are using labview, you can probably tether using a cord or through bluetooth and then you can use the run program function which is in the remote control.

I'm sorry if I wasn't clear- We want to be able to run teleop through a cable or bluetooth.

On Labview, in your robot project center, open the 'default configuration.rcc' file under Remote Control.

Once you get to that window, on the left sidebar, click "Run Program", then change the setting from Prototype to FTC Game, select your Teleop VI on that selector menu, and start the test and enable the bot.

Hope this helps.

That's just what I was looking for. Thanks.

That is exactly what I was trying to explain if anyone didn't get what I was saying.
