 vex lcd screen auto selector I'm new to robotc and was wandering if anyone has any code for a autonomous selector using the LCD (like it asks red or blue, left or right side of the field, then you can cycle though numbers for different autonomous runs) also before you start selecting autonomous run it will give you an option for autonomous run or battery powers, and when you finished selecting autonomous run to show the battery power. ps: i am using cortex and i want to check battery levels of main battery, power expander and backup battery if possible. thanks for any help

Re: vex lcd screen auto selector For an overly thorough example of how to use the buttons on the LCD to select different stuff, go to File > Open Sample Program > Advanced > Cortex View Mode.c
The variable that let you see the values of the battery are "BackupBatteryLevel", "nAvgBatteryLevel", and "nImmediateBatteryLevel".

Re: vex lcd screen auto selector Here are sample programs that will be included in the next version of ROBOTC:  | | | | Code: #pragma config(UART_Usage, UART2, uartVEXLCD, baudRate19200, IOPins, None, None)
#pragma config(Motor, port2, rightMotor, tmotorNormal, openLoop, reversed)
#pragma config(Motor, port3, leftMotor, tmotorNormal, openLoop)

Re: vex lcd screen auto selector so does this program allow you to make another choice? Once the autonomous route you selected is done, can you select a new route to run?

Re: vex lcd screen auto selector Is there a limit to the number of choices? Thank you.

Re: vex lcd screen auto selector by default there is 4 choices there, but to add more you just edit the code a bit so here is the default code and to add another one we just copy the last of the chooser things and edit it, so it would look like | | | | Code: //Clear LCD
clearLCDLine(0);
clearLCDLine(1);
//Declare count variable to keep track of our choice
int count = 0;
//Loop while center button is not pressed
while(nLCDButtons != centerButton)
{
//Switch case that allows the user to choose from 4 different options
switch(count){
case 0:
//Display first choice
displayLCDCenteredString(0, "Autonomous 1");
displayLCDCenteredString(1, "< Enter >");
waitForPress();
//Increment or decrement "count" based on button press
if(nLCDButtons == leftButton)
{
waitForRelease();
count = 3;
}
else if(nLCDButtons == rightButton)
{
waitForRelease();
count++;
}
break;
case 1:
//Display second choice
displayLCDCenteredString(0, "Autonomous 2");
displayLCDCenteredString(1, "< Enter >");
waitForPress();
//Increment or decrement "count" based on button press
if(nLCDButtons == leftButton)
{
waitForRelease();
count--;
}
else if(nLCDButtons == rightButton)
{
waitForRelease();
count++;
}
break;
case 2:
//Display third choice
displayLCDCenteredString(0, "Autonomous 3");
displayLCDCenteredString(1, "< Enter >");
waitForPress();
//Increment or decrement "count" based on button press
if(nLCDButtons == leftButton)
{
waitForRelease();
count--;
}
else if(nLCDButtons == rightButton)
{
waitForRelease();
count++;
}
break;
case 3:
//Display fourth choice
displayLCDCenteredString(0, "Autonomous 4");
displayLCDCenteredString(1, "< Enter >");
waitForPress();
//Increment or decrement "count" based on button press
if(nLCDButtons == leftButton)
{
waitForRelease();
count--; // make sure this is --+ so that when the left button is pressed it decreases the count instead of looping back around to the last auto
}
else if(nLCDButtons == rightButton)
{
waitForRelease();
count++; //make sure this is ++ so that when the right button is pressed it increases the count instead of looping back around to the first auto
}
break;
default:
count = 0;
break;
case 4: //make sure to change to 1 above the last one
//Display fourth choice
displayLCDCenteredString(0, "Autonomous 5"); //change to one above last so it displays the right automous number
displayLCDCenteredString(1, "< Enter >");
waitForPress();
//Increment or decrement "count" based on button press
if(nLCDButtons == leftButton)
{
waitForRelease();
count--; // make sure this is -- so that it can decrease the count
}
else if(nLCDButtons == rightButton)
{
waitForRelease();
count = 0; // make sure this is 0 so that it loops back around to the first automous if the right button is pressed again
}
break;
default:
count = 0;
break;
}
} | | | | |
hope this helped, sorry if i didnt explain to well

Re: vex lcd screen auto selector ohh and forgot to add, you have to add another one to the auto its self so that you can controll it if you made a 5th selection | | | | Code: #pragma config(UART_Usage, UART2, uartVEXLCD, baudRate19200, IOPins, None, None)
