Id recommend putting together some sort of test board to practice wiring since you've never done it before, before you have to do it for real on your competition robot. If you want to set up a board, send me/us a pic and Id be happy to check over all of your connections for you (As well as others on the forums here)

I second Griffin's advice. If you have the funds, purchase another cRIO system as well, both for the practice of wiring the system and for off-robot development/testing. I have personally found Team 358's website to be of particular use in terms of references (
http://www.team358.org/files/electrical/). If you click on "Layouts", 358 has the good old posters that detail all of the wiring (I'm not sure where to get them now, or even if FIRST still gives these out).
One thing I would suggest is to print out all of the documentation and instructions (and personal notes that you may have when wiring) for the control system, cRIO, PDB, etc. and put them all in a binder and label it "Control System Bible". The name should say it all...
