Re: Programming the Air Compressor and Pressure Switch

  1. put together a test project in RobotBuilder that has one subsystem, one relay output (where the compressor is) and one digital input (where the switch is).
  2. Load the project into the robot.
  3. Put the robot into test mode
  4. Go into the livewindow and manually try to turn the compressor on.
  5. If the compressor doesn't fire up, you've got data flow or power problem; if the compressor fires up, you know your wiring is good.
