telemetryInterval loopTimeLimit myLoopTimer elapsedLoopTime numberOfCycles msPerCycle runOpMode This function is executed when this Op Mode is selected from the Driver Station. <<=== CICK THE QUESTION MARK FOR INFO. This OpMode verifies if the "setTelemetryRate" myBlock actually works. The default FTC refresh rate is 4 cycles per second, or 250 ms time interval. Try 500 ms, then other values. For each value, run the OpMode a few times. The testing loop contains a myBlock called telemetryAction that returns the number 1 only if the current Telemetry interval has elapsed. Otherwise it returns 0. No gamepad or special configuration are needed. telemetryInterval 500 myLoopTimer loopTimeLimit 5 numberOfCycles 0 Does the following myBlock actually work? W_myBlocks_Telemetry_v02 setTelemetryRate Sets Telemetry refresh rate or interval, which resets to default 250 ms every time OpMode runs. Optional: add pause in Blocks to view confirming message. 0 telemetryInterval Start a new Telemetry cycle with .update Reset the loop timer and its variable. elapsedLoopTime 0 myLoopTimer Loop for the specified time duration. This loop tries to update Telemetry very fast, but is limited by the maximum refresh rate. WHILE AND LTE elapsedLoopTime loopTimeLimit This myBlock returns 1, only if Telemetry interval has elapsed. If so, increment the cycles counter. numberOfCycles 1 W_myBlocks_Telemetry_v02 telemetryAction At each scheduled Telemetry update, return value 1 to increment counter. Otherwise return 0. elapsedLoopTime Time myLoopTimer Calculate average time (ms) per Telemetry cycle. msPerCycle MULTIPLY 1 DIVIDE 1 elapsedLoopTime 1 numberOfCycles 1000 Add result to the final status message.
