 Ultrasonic sensors will allow you to do fundamentally the same thing that the bump sensors do...so you can slow down and smoothly stop your robot just before it reaches the end wall, instead of running into it at full speed and then figuring out "ohh! there is a wall there!" - dlavery [more] |

Testing Controller Without Robot?
Is there a way that I can test out my gaming controller when I'm home without the robot being connected to it? When I'm at school I have to build and I wanted to get into programming, and my team wants to use a game pad for the robot. And I need a way to test if the buttons and everything is working correctly. Can I just go to joystick input examples and drag the vi from cRIO to My Computer in the project manager?

Re: Testing Controller Without Robot?
MakI dont have labview on this pc so I cant say for sure but I remember you can make a new file then look for input devices. You should see one for joystick. You have to open it, do whatever in a loop, then close it.
Wish I could help more but I dont have it on this pc.

The Windows "Game Controllers" control panel will show you the same thing you'll get from the Joystick Get vi (the first six axes and twelve buttons, anyway).
