This leads to another question about the data....when was it taken? If this was from the first time robots connected for the season it would be a lot different than if it was from a team's last match. Maybe it is an average or maximum for all of the categories. |

I know it was based on team number and the number of controllers we have listed only happened for 1 match at NC DCMP. |

What team would like to claim line 508 - 2005 year... 7 Jaguars... in CAN?! Bold move cotton. |

All reported CAN motor controllers: 7750 Based on the observational data across events that REV folks attended we think that the number is actually somewhere like 2/3 of teams use PWM and 1/3 use CAN, so the error bars on the data might be pretty wide. I suspect the CAN data is more accurate due to the way that they are addressed in code. |

The adaptation of something by a FIRST team might go something like this. We give the team a fish (the kit of parts frame), we show them how to get that fish (build season) and ideally, the activity of teaching them to fish can lead them to an event that can show them other people's fish and those people can show them how they caught them. Wow, what a terrible analogy. I'm leaving it anyway. So I believe CTR gave everyone a magnetic encoder in the kit this year. I think if someone who is qualified in programming and/or is more intelligent/motivated than myself can create a video tutorial and/or workshop that can show teams a useful application for the encoder and how to get the most out of it, that can only lead to bigger and better things for more and more teams. Probably... maybe. I also do not know if this is available, but if we get the DigiKey and AutomationDirect or other relevant vouchers, maybe FIRST can work with experienced mentors and the suppliers to create a "Top 10 Ways to Use Your Voucher" guide that you can access through TIMS. |

The magnetic encoder in the KOP wasn't helped by being a Talon SRX encoder, which only connects to a Talon SRX without a breakout.

CTR Breakouts are $10 a pop. Not quite all around perfect but it's pretty close. It would be interesting to know the redemption rate for the IFI/CTR voucher and the breakdown of motor controller options. |

I've had much better luck with the S4/S4T. This is nearly the same encoder, but has a integrated shaft instead of a through hole. Part of the outer body is threaded so there's no need to open the encoder itself to mount. |
