Hi Malhar,

It looks like you are using last years toolkit. I would recommend upgrading to the latest version which includes a built-in FCS for testing your labview code (plus other improvements).

I tried running your vi and it seems to work for me.

In your case is the FCS connected to the brick? Does the FCS start FTCTeleopBasic running on your NXT Brick?

Is the issue you are seeing that the robot stays disabled and never enters your true case... or is it entering the true case but the joystick values are zero.

Note that you wont be able to display the raw joystick packet strings because they are binary data, not text.

Hello Ethan,

Thanks for your kind reply. Let me know from where I can download the latest version of Toolkit.

Comments on Code:

In your case is the FCS connected to the brick? Yes it is connected to Brick.

Does the FCS start FTCTeleopBasic running on your NXT Brick? Yes. It starts running the FTCTeleopBasic.ci on NXT.

Is the issue you are seeing that the robot stays disabled and never enters your true case. No. My Robot goes in Enbled state as I get the True Case string on the Brick.

Ok, Since I tried this first time I don't in this Controller1 String would be. Thanks for correcting me.

Regards,

Malhar
