Re: Constant Button Value

Do you really want to use a single button to toggle between high and low gear? It might be easier on the driver to give him or her two buttons, one to select high gear and the other to select low gear. That way there will never be any confusion over which gear the robot is being commanded to use.

An easy solution to this is putting an indicator light into driver station in order to know what "mode" the drive is in.
