Analog voltage

Could someone confirm that the analog input is 0-5v?

Re: Analog voltage

On the cRIO?

It is -10V to +10V input and a 5V power supply.

Re: Analog voltage

So I'm going to need a 0-10v input?

Re: Analog voltage

Nope. You can use anything that fits within -10 to +10, including 0 to 5

Re: Analog voltage

I've never use an analog sensor before what am going to get out of the vi?

Re: Analog voltage

I know how to wire/program gyros, accelerometers, and encoders.
i was asking about analog inputs they dont have pre-written VIs for

There's a complete set of them.

WPI Robotics Library >> IO >> AnalogChannel

The Analog Get Voltage function is probably the one you'll be using. As the name implies, it returns the voltage present on the Analog Input pin.
