Just do what the comment says... Add the names of the auto modes to this list.

Then in your Auto code, check for each of those strings and put the auto code or whatever controls your auto in that case structure.

If that is unclear, please ask more specific questions about how it works.

There is no Network Tables connection (as evidenced by the LED that is off on your dashboard). That is likely the reason.

That's the idea. Are you running the Driver Station? Does anything on your dashboard function?
