Dashboard indicators

I know this might be a stupid question, but how do you use the various displays on the dashboard? How do you make the gyro update the compass heading, for example? I can get the camera feed, but nothing else.

BTW, I'm using Java on NetBeans 6.8. Attached is a photo indicating which portions aren't working.

Re: Dashboard indicators

The dashboard is tied to robot I/O. The sample code assumes that you've mounted the gyro and attached it to channel one on module one.

Re: Dashboard indicators

Have you looked at the Circle Tracker Demo project?

Re: Dashboard indicators

You also need to be careful and check that the code which polls the various other devices on the cRio like the PWM's, digital I/O and analog I/O are not commented out.

I don't know if java is the same but when I was working this issue with C++, most of the code that would actually make the dashboard read the cRIO positions was commented out for us and replaced with arbitrary constants.
