Re: How do Dashboard Projects Work
The dashboard does not go on the crio, it is simply a customizable control interface that can display sensor feedback and set values to your robot without a controller. You can also use it to do your vision processing, since the crio can be easily bogged down by it.
When you open a dashboard project, the main difference you'll see is that the only .vi you should edit is Dashboard Main.vi. It contains everything you need to run the program, unlike the robot project.
Like gnunes said, chapter 8 of The Secret Book of FRC LabVIEW is a great learning tool and the dashboard is one of the most important components of your operator console. My advice is to use it as much as possible!

Winning, the objective, the thing you can point to and say "See that? We want to do that. What can we do to make our program better, to improve our chances at that?" is what has grown FIRST from 28 teams in a high school gym to where it is today. - Joe G. [more]
