Re: Pre match switch for autonomous

We've been having a discussion in this thread regarding the various robot states and the modes that will be commanded during competitions.

There are a few assumptions in here that conflict a little with the thread over in the NI/Programming thread ...

Namely, the Joystick (and other) values from the drivers station are not "zeroed out" but rather, latched just before going into Autonomous Enabled.

Personally, I prefer putting the switches on the 'bot ... but there are many proponents of putting them at the DS so that they can perform "last minute" changes to their Auton strategy.
