Hi, My team cant figure out hot to configure the solenoid base mount provided by VEX. Does anyone have any tips or a video you can share with us?

Check out this link:

You can see on the side of the mounts you have exhaust ports--just let these be, and a pressure input in the middle. You have you incoming air from your tanks go to this port. You then attach the solenoids along the top, as shown on the second page. The coresponding ports on the side are where you hook up the air to go out as the solenoid is activated. If you have a spare port open, you need to cover it using the blank station kit or else it will leak out of that hole.

Are the exhaust ports on both sides designed to be left open or should one side be plugged?

Exhaust ports are designed to be left alone and open.
Air won't move if it has no place to go.
