Labview help

It's my first year with labview and i'm still trying to learn a thing or two. One thing that has had me stumped for a while is that I am trying to get our tank drive to only go backwards. How do I set the variables for this?

You could try replacing the inputs for the joysticks with -127 witch should send a signal for full reverse on the joysticks and thus make the motors turn in reverse. Have you attempted declaring each motor individually then making it into a drive using its existing motor property.

Re: Labview help

What you want to do is unclear. Are you trying to prevent the driver from commanding the robot to go forward? Are you trying to write an autonomous routine?
