step by step wiring instructions?

[Michaela3229]

I'm trying to find a step by step wiring instructions for a rookie team that needs some help, They don't have any teams near them so we communicate through email. So far I have only found the controls manual that has any instructions but they want something easier to understand.

Do any teams have a powerpoint or video out there? with pictures maybe?

On 254, we use this document (http://team254.com/resources/documents/69-frc-wiring) to outline how the various components connect to each other.

If you're looking for how to do the wiring, some of the most important tools are listed here (http://team254.com/resources/documents/187-handtools#wiring) and there's some instructions on soldering here (http://team254.com/resources/documents/237-soldering). On 254, every crimped wire is crimped, soldered and covered with heatshrink to ensure reliability.
