Programming Omni-wheel drive in labview

[Team2191]

My team has been working with omni wheel drive for the first time this year. We have the wheels set up at 45 degree angles, and in the Labview code we have the input from the joystick going to the holonomic drive function provided to us by first. We're having trouble finding the configuration of the code so that we can drive in any direction with the omni wheels. Does anyone have a Labview diagram that can show us how to wire this drive system correctly and efficiently?

Thanks,
Matt

Here's a picture.

For your first try I'd disconnect the axis 3 (throttle) input and hardwire a constant 0 into the rotate node instead.

I am having the same problem no one on my team knows how to code...

When you test it, you do have to make sure the motors all go in the proper direction.
If they do not, then there are additional nodes on the Open4Motor vi that are used to reverse the motors that are going in the wrong direction.

Of course, there are other possibilities for it not working correctly, such as, lower overall power getting to some motors rather than others.
