Obtains speed and direction information from a radio controller (R/C) signal for a specific radio receiver channel you specify.
![]() | Note You must have the SPEEDY-33 Robot Daughter Module to use this VI. |
This VI interprets a variable width pulse by monitoring the pulse width on the SPEEDY-33 J1 digital I/O connector on the SPEEDY-33 Robot Daughter Module. You can use the pulse width to determine the speed and forward or reverse direction a radio controller operator supplies. The control pulse width typically ranges from 700 uS to 2300 uS.

The following digital inputs correspond to one of four R/C channels:
You can use multiple instances of the RC Speed Control VI on the same block diagram. However, you must use a unique channel. For example, you can use four RC Speed Control VIs on a block diagram with individual channels of RC1, RC2, RC3, RC4. You cannot duplicate channel numbers. For example, you cannot use four RC Speed Control VIs on a block diagram with individual channel selections of 0, 1, 0, and 3 because two of the instances of the RC Speed Control VIs are using the same channel number 0.
