A big hello from team 3469, the Spanish Inquisition in Mobile, Al
We are looking for a clear explanation of what Autonomous Independent is and why we keep finding information about an iterative flavor of the autonmous program. Our team has a lot of experience with LabVIEW and we are committed to a State Machine structure for controlling our robot.
Thanks for all of the help!
The 2011 LabVIEW robot project does not include the Autonomous Iterative vi that was supported in previous years. It’s not hard to add its function to the 2011 project, but I think it turns out to be easier to move actions to Periodic Tasks where appropriate and use the Autonomous Independent to sequence things.
Autonomous Independent gets called once when Autonomous Mode begins. It should be written to do everything it needs to before completing. The framework code will automatically terminate Autonomous Independent at the end of Autonomous Mode, before starting to call Teleop each time a packet of information is exchanged with the Driver Station.
