Re: Robot Main.vi

I don't think you have to use Robot Main either but I would recommend you stick with the outline that is supplied unless you are EXTREMELY good at programming. If you start developing your own framework you have to make sure to do things like set up the watchdog and driver station properly. If you don't set up the watchdog properly you could run into problems with the robot not running or not stopping when you press the E-stop button. If you E-stop button doesn't work correctly I think you would be disqualified for safety reasons. My recommendation would be to clean up robot main and remove or empty out things that you are not using. For example if you are not using a camera I would disable it and remove it from all the Sub-VI's. I would then make a new dashboard that did not have a video patch thru.
