Presentation Transcript

  1. Intro • Joe A Varnell – mentor for team 704 SGP Robotics • Lockheed Martin - Test Engineer • Have been a software and systems • Worked with NI equipment for 10 years • LabVIEW on and off for 6 years • LabVIEW core I, II, and III

  2. Starting off To start a new project NI Areas for help Open an existing project Sensor, motor, robot operation examples

  3. The Robot Project • Give meaningful name to project • Everything under “My Computer” does not • Everything under “RT CompactRIO” goes on the cRIO

  4. Front Panel • Block Diagram • Flow left to right • NI Code provides info on diagram • Context Help to see • Double click to dig down into blocks

  5. -Open block going to a refNum register block with meaningful name • -Autonomous code • Drag down comment blocks • Dropdowns control operations • Watch dog; Feed the dog

  6. -Get refnum using name -State machine to control execution of teleop -reads joystick and operates on it

  7. -Each loop runs independent of the other (parallel execution) -get reference outside of loop • Anything outside executes once • Anything inside the loops is repeated

  8. Technical Resources • www.chiefdelphi.com • www.ni.com/first - a lot of technical issues • NI training page - http://decibel.ni.com/content/docs/DOC-8923 • http://www.usfirst.org/roboticsprograms/frc/content.aspx?id=10934 • www.lvmastery.com – LabVIEW training. Free for now, may be pay later
