Problems with Pneumatic Cylinders

Hi all,

We are trying to program our 2012 season robot with C++ and we are doing well so far. (We have the compressor initialized) We are trying to get 3 pistons to work (2 operate a bridge lowering mechanism, and one helps shoot the ball) We cannot get this to work. So our questions are:

1. How can we tell what port a certain piston relay is on?

2. Do we use the relay "kOff/kOn" or "kReverse/kForward"

3. How do we initialize multiple pistons?

Thanks a lot!

P.S. If you want to look at our code repository it's here
