Testing SmartDashboard Tools Display Subsystem Status

Technical Programming
1

I have been testing tools the team has never used but I see Value in. I tried to add my subsystem status on the SmartDashboard by using:


public void robotInit(){

SmartDashboard.putData(mySubsystem); //Works

//and

SmartDashboard.putData(myPIDSubsystem); //Does Not Work

The normal system display as expected the PID has Nothing. Is the PID system Not usable this way?

The PID subsystem works quite well last I checked, you had the normal options for a command plus some tuning widgets for the PIDF constants. Check your code (command code and SD code (reset all if you aren’t doing anything special)) and see if you can find an issue, if not post here.

The live window works fine. I was looking for subsystem status in teleop.
