Driver Station Add Point to Battery Voltage Log

Hello from 4761!

My team and I were working on a brown-out issue, and we needed to know how to get a specific point on the Driver Station Graph. We want to be able to put a point on the graph at a specific time, to get a value from the graph. A program of some sort or a hidden option we didn’t see; all help is welcomed :] .

Well, you can zoom in on any portion of the graph down to finer time scales.
Left click-hold and drag to highlight what you want to zoom in on.
Would that help?

To add your own data to the DS log files you’d have to write your own code and your own reader to display the added data.


If you get stuck viewing data on the driver station, (and since it appears you use Java), I can offer the three part solution we used in similar scenarios:

  1. Set up logging of the voltage/current values of interest in code:
    https://github.com/RobotCasserole1736/CasseroleLib/blob/master/java/src/org/usfirst/frc/team1736/lib/Logging/simpleCsvLogger.java

  2. Generate brownouts, snag logs with your favorite FTP utility

  3. View the logs on your local computer:
    https://github.com/RobotCasserole1736/CasseroleLib/tree/master/DataViewer2

If you do end up attempting this and run into issues, feel free to message me for help!

More work, but you might be able to get more detailed info about the issue.

Sorry if this is little late, I made an alternative driver station log viewer which can give you values at specific points on the graph. https://i.imgur.com/vplgBJw.png
Hope this helps!
