Drive a sabertooth with packetized serial commands with labview and a myRIO 1900

sabertooth-packetized-control

This is code to drive Sabertooths in LabVIEW with a myRIO 1900. It should work with any sabertooth in packetized serial mode. Tested on a 2x12, 2x60. For more information on the 2x60: https://www.dimensionengineering.com/products/sabertooth2x60

Usage: to use a project file

1. clone the repo
2. make a copy of "sabertooth-packetized-control.lvprojremovethesewords" (DO NOT MODIFY THE FILE DIRECTLY)
3. remove "removethesewords" from the extension of the copy template project file and "COPY" in the name. (this is because the lvproj file may contain sensitive/private info, so by making a copy of the template you can modify it as you wish) Note: all .aliases and .lvlps files will be auto generated by labview for you, dont worry about them.
4. you should now have the project file: "sabertooth-packetized-control.lvproj" and the original template "sabertooth-packetized-control.lvprojremovethesewords". Do not delete the template for git reasons
5. open the new project file and have fun!
