Re: 12v and 24v solenoid

Can someone please clarify the 24V power out pins on the PD? A close reading of all the Robot rules as well as the manuals for the PD and the Solenoid breakout* did not reveal their meaning to me:

The 24V output pins are labeled: V - C - NC - C

We wired cRio positive (red) to V and negative (black) to the C immediately to the right of V.

We wired solenoid breakout positive (red) to NC and negative (black) to the remaining C terminal.

Is this correct?


* In fact, the manual for the solenoid breakout only tells how to wire it for 12V, not 24V.
