Have you opened a Network Table Viewer client and seeing if network table values are getting published there? (it sounds like it, but good to double-check)

Hi Peter,

When we go look at the network table when we are tethered we see all the values on the table.
When we look at it when we are connected to the FMS we receive a Null symbol.

Looking at it with what software (the code on your robot, LV Dashboard, Network Table Viewer)? What does "a null symbol" mean? The name/entry is present but its contents are blank or the entry doesn't exist?

I'm thinking you're not seeing a rectangle but rather a pair of square brackets, e.g. an empty list ("[]"). Since you're seeing the name it's almost certainly not a NT issue, but rather GRIP isn't actually finding what you're looking for, and thus the output is an empty list. Does GRIP show that it's actually recognizing anything (just prior to the NT publish)?
