Dashboard¶
TODO: Based on LabVIEW Dashboard code. Need to actually listen and see if they are exact copies
The Driver Station uses a variety of ports to communicate with any Dashboard software. Either connects to these ports localhost or to them on the specified Remote Dashboard IP.
Control (UDP port 1164)¶
Simply a copy of the packets sent to the RoboRIO
Status (UDP port 1166)¶
Simply a copy of the packets sent from the RoboRIO
TCP (port 1741)¶
Might have the other tags, but at least have the `Robot IP` and `DB Mode` tags special

TCP Listening (port 1742)¶
The Driver Station listens on TCP port 1742 and sends the following JSON:
{"robotIP":0,"dashboardiP":3232235818,"FMS Connected":false,"Robot Connected":false,"RobotCode":false}
This is sent whenever one of the values changes.
