Program so far - help please

[chinckley]

Here is what we have so far. I have added the Main vi.

I have looked at all the TipJar videos pertaining to FRC.
I have read much of the FRC Programming Guide.
I had trouble with Chapter 4 as there were no screen prints or samples
to explain what we were suppose to do. I got ahold of the Electrical diagrams for our robot today. They tell me I need these. I was able to get through the Chapters 5 and 29. I am going to work on Chapter 32 today.
The others I read but do not think we need.

Can anyone please help me understand if we are even on the right path.

Our robot is simple. It moves forward, back and turns beautifully with 2 joysticks and 2 CIMS motors. This part of the program works.

We have a chain mechanism that has hooks that picks up the balls.
The motor it uses is the globe motor. We want the following:

1. Right hand joystick trigger - make the globe motor move the chain forward.
2. Left hand joystick trigger - make the globe motor move the chain backwards. This only is used if something gets stuck.

The dumper is using the keyang motor and we want it to do the following:

3. Button that thumb rests on (right hand) make the keyang motor move the dumper forward.
4. Button that thumb rests on (left hand) make the keyang motor move the dumper back. This is only used if a ball gets stuck.


Please if you have any ideas that could help us I would appreciate it.
We compete on Thursday at Traverse City.
