Re: DIP switches for autonomous modes

A switch connecting a signal pin to ground when pressed is the intended method of operation for Digital Inputs, so you are correct. Have you considered using Digital Inputs on the driver station (many teams prefer this approach) instead of the robot? You can use the virtual digital inputs on the I/O panel or your DIP switch on the PSoC.
