Re: Solenoid Breakout Board Problems?.?.?
The solenoid breakout board looks nearly identical to the analog breakout board except that each pin set has 2 pins instead of 3. It plugs into a card on the cRio. This card looks nearly identical to a analog card, but it has lights on it. You plug your solenoids into this breakout board using things that look very much like PWM cables but only have 2 conductors. The code explained in this section does a good job of controlling them. Also, as explained above, spike relays should also be legal if you are missing a piece of this assembly.
