Re: [DFTF] Control System Limbo...

Joe,
As a reminder, the Crio needs a 24 volt power supply (19-30 is the published spec, I believe). The Power Distribution Panel (PD in First Speak) provides a boost regulator output at 24 volts for this purpose. The regulator will continue to run down to about 4.5 volts at robot battery input. With the required voltage jumper on the slot 1 analog module, the Crio input sense will disable all output when the robot battery falls to about 5.5 volts so that the Crio will not reboot during a brownout.
