HELP!!! No data being sent back to the drivers station!

HELP! No data is showing up on the drivers station. The drivers station says that we are communicating with our robot (which is working) but no voltage indications or sensors are showing up! Has anyone else encountered this problem? What do we do?

You can get voltage readings by putting a jumper on the outer two pins of the analog breakout on the cRIO. As far as output to the dashboard, you can customize the dashboard yourself to get specific data, there are tutorials online for such.

However, getting the built in lights and indicators to work is another matter. My team's don't work, so I can't advise you as to how to make them functional.

The Build Dashboard Data vi in the default robot project has a bug in it. There is an extraneous increment that needs to be removed in order for the feedback to the dashboard to work properly.

I am aware of the jumper and it is on, it's not just the battery info thats not being sent back to dashboard, nothing is showing up on the dashboard, like the GPIO states, the relay states, the pwm readings, the solenoid states. However, the robot is functioning, meaning when I push a joystick the victor light changes color as it should and compressor and sensor are working.

This does seem to be our problem, I will take a look tomorrow.
