Autonomous Mode, Independent, Iterative (?)

[FRC2669_Valery]

Hello, My Name is Valery and I'm the lead programmer in our team, 2669, Kiryat Yam, Israel.

My experience with autonomous mode is tiny.
while trying to write an autonomous mode I bumped into a problem.

I couldn't figure the independent and iterative modes and didn't understand what to choose.
finally I've chosen the independent because I understood that this vi does the program one time and then stops.

but I saw that in the Main VI there's a referral to the iterative vi, should I change it to the independent ? in the iterative vi there's a case structure that leads to an independent autonomous but the case is empty, should I put there the independent auto' VI ?

How can I "tell" the robot that I'd like him to use the independent autonomous and not the iterative?


thanks, valery
