WPI Robotics Library

[helenajoy]

Is there any possible way to accidentally mess up one of the VIs included in the WPI Robotics Library? We think our programming team has somehow modified a WPI Robotics Library VI and that it may be messing up our code from working properly but we aren't entirely sure.

If we did modify a WPI Robotics Library VI and that is our problem, how can we restore the VI?

On your developer PC, check around in one of the directories like the example shown below ...

C:\Program Files\National Instruments\LabVIEW 8.6\vi.lib\Robotics Library\WPI\RobotDrive\Open2MotorWithJaguar.vi

All of the VI's in all of those WPI directories have the installation date ... you could search the WPI (and all sub-) directory for files with a date after your installation date ... if you've got a "bad" one, post up and I'll send you a copy of mine.

Okay, we've done that and it doesn't seem like we badly modified any of them.

Thank you!

One of the good things about MSI is the repair feature. If you think you need it, set aside some time and run the reinstall. Make sure to backup your code first.
