Hey there,
We’re trying to work on programming the joystick trigger button so it would run our throwing mechanism. any help is appreciated.
Well, not knowing what mechanism you use makes it hard to give any help. However, I can help you with the joystick. I use the Joystick Get vi. Unbundle the buttons cluster (the trigger is button one) and wire the booleans to your throwing code, most likely some case structures.
I would recommend checking out this example that demonstrates how to make joystick button imputs do a variety of things. Or you can call into NI for help, see details below!
