Programming Pneumatics

We've got less than a week left in the build. I still have to program the pneumatics. And I am really unsure where to start and what everything is supposed to work.

We have an air compressor, hooked up to 2 tanks (this years-2012 and last years-2011) and then we have all the essential dials.

I have to set it to refill at a certain PSI and also stop at 120PSI. I also have to program the the trigger of the right joystick to make the cylinder go up and down for a catapult. We need to have it stay up when the trigger is held, and go down when its released to allow reloading of the arm.

I am still learning LabView. And, I am the only programmer.

THANK YOU!
