Delay is how much time is in between Autonomous and Teleoperated.

Practice timing controls how long Countdown till start of each period, Autonomous, Teleoperated, and how long endgame is. If unlit, you can hover over them for troubleshooting tips in the messages box (See Messages & Charts)Ĭonfigure your team # here, click on the box type it in and boom FMS should be lit if at competition since it is mandatory to communicate with the Field Management System. DS Radio is a legacy indicator of ping status of an external radio at 10.TE.AM.4(Compared to last Driver Station, this light will usually not be lit except under specific circumstances) Bridge will be lit if connected to the router, Robot will be lit if it can communicate with the roboRIO.

What the Driver Station has communications with if plugged through Ethernet directly to something (router or roboRIO), Enet Link will light up.

Here we are creating a string within the code called dashData that is set to the string that was in the first and second line on the SmartDashboard printer console. Std:: string dashData = SmartDashboard::GetString( "DB/String 1", "myDefaultData") Strings that are on or were sent to the Smartdashboard can then be retrieved using the following code: std:: string dashData = SmartDashboard::GetString( "DB/String 0", "myDefaultData") The second set of quotations can be manipulated to send various strings. Each line is assigned a name from DB/String 0 to DB/String9 from top to bottom then left to right.

SmartDashBoard::PutString is calling the Smartdashboard and allows you to send strings to the Driver Station printing console. SmartDashboard::PutString( "DB/String 1", "This is another string") Strings can be sent to the Smartdashboard print console using the following code: SmartDashboard::PutString( "DB/String 0", "This is a string") Some teams may find this useful when testing their robot code. Unlike the DiverStationLCD print console, it is possible to type directly into the string fields as well as read these strings within your robot code. Note that the DriverStationLCD Class was removed entirely, and now printing is done through the Smartdashboard.
