Programming toggle switches to DS for different autonomous routines?

Thanks

ok try something along these lines

i am assuming you guys changed the vi to match your button inputs
the output of the GetSwitchVI is a number
the number is counted in binary depending on the switch: so if the first switch is true, then the number is 1, if the second then it is 2 if first AND second then 3 if none then 0.

there is a global variable called robot data. If you have watched the tipjar videos from lvmastery.com, you would know how to place more 'data(for lack of the proper term =P)' into the global variable Robot Data. place just a number indicator into there.

in autonomous independent vi, unbundle the global, take the number (again, the videos from lvmastery tipjar will teach you this.) and wire it into a case structure. Then inside each of the cases, put what autonomous code you want running into it.
