Team 2853 presents...their Book of Electrical
We started off this year pretty clueless to all of the little nitty gritty details about electrical compenents. Heck, we spent a week trying to figure out why our limit switch wasn't working, to find out that we reimaged our cRIO wrong. Our electrical subteam has had a pretty terrible streak of documenting over the years, so we decided to consolidate our experiences into a giant electrical guide for everyone!
It's pretty long (spans ~130 pages) and we still have some sections and links to add, mostly concerning sensors. We hope this serves to be helpful =D https://docs.google.com/document/d/1...FQO4vjQI/edit# Let us know if there are any egregious errors or improvements/other bases to cover. (Also, I'm not sure if this thread belongs in here or chit chat...sorry if this is in the wrong forum!) |
Re: Team 2853 presents...their Book of Electrical
Very nice! A whole lot of information in there!
If you don't mind, I may try to borrow some pieces for our Lazy Mentor chart, particularly for the programming. |
Re: Team 2853 presents...their Book of Electrical
That is an awesome guide, I don't think I've ever seen one so complete. I will definitely be showing this to my team, thanks :)

Re: Team 2853 presents...their Book of Electrical
I'm graduating, so I'll use this for some training before I leave.

Re: Team 2853 presents...their Book of Electrical
WOW! You really put some effort in creating a valuable product. I'll probably use it for training the electronics and programming sub-teams next fall with the caveat that some of the control system components will change.
Nice work. Give yourself a pat on the back. |
Re: Team 2853 presents...their Book of Electrical
Thanks everyone!
Everything on this manual is free for everyone to use. Let us know if you would like the PDF/other formats. We're currently working on a printable version. |
Re: Team 2853 presents...their Book of Electrical
Fantastic and comprehensive guide. I sincerely hope that your team considers updating it for the 2015 control system.

I want to congratulate you on taking the initiative of creating such a guide - this is something I am currently working with team leadership on my team to create (similar, but more specifically electronics-oriented).
However, I just gave the whole thing a quick-browse and I've found a couple areas that need work (mostly electrical). Here are a few I found quickly:
Otherwise, great job with the documentation. -Danny |

Here's a few things I noticed:
Analog Breakout: The red analog breakout has the switching regulator. Both blue versions have 0.25 amp linear regulators. The 2014 analog breakout does not have the battery voltage jumper. AI 8 is automatically jumpered. Servo: Should mention 6v jumper on digital sidecar |
Re: Team 2853 presents...their Book of Electrical
We're currently in the middle of our Hawaii regional, but we'll definitely be updating this after we're over the insanity of competition :ahh:
Thanks for all of your input! :D |
Re: Team 2853 presents...their Book of Electrical
This is a really great guide to all of the electrical parts, I now plan to use this is as a guide for the Powerpoint to show rookies at the beginning of the school year in the future! :D
