Last year at regionals someone showed my team how their autonomous program referenced variables that they had typed into a text document then stored it on the cRio via FTP. Could anyone explain how to program in labview to do this? I read the manual and know how to FTP to the new roborio but I don’t know how to reference the text document in labview.
Basically if we had programmed the robot to go forward for 3 seconds we want that 3 to be in a text document so if its too long we can just change it to 2.9 and save the document without recompiling the code every time.
Root around for the “command-based programming” stuff. Classically, these open a file at some spot in the robot’s file system, then read commands (line by line of you will) from there.
