Programming a Solenoid in Autonomous
Hi
I have looked over every code but just need confirmation on programming a solenoid during autonomus, all the code I find shows drive code.
All code works in every other mode but confused as to what to put in auto

Basically we have no desire to drive, we are removing all wheels and motors as climbing takes full time and we are better served just positioning and going up.
Our time is close to full two minutes to climb as we are using pneumatics and waiting on compressor, so we are close to two minutes.
Having the extra 15 seconds in autonomus to hook and hang would help
Operation-
solenoid 5 is controlled by joystick button 7, then at 10 seconds we wait solenoid 3 to be deployed by joystick 11.
HELP!! thanks
