Re: Pressure Switch

you need to get the FRC (full size robot controller) user manual from the innovationfirst web site - it shows the pinouts for the digital inputs

and if you look at the default code I believe there is already a digital input pin setup and a relay output that will run when the pressure is low, and shut off when its high

use the grey wire that came in the kit, the thin one - I forget if it has two or three wires in it - and cable it to the signal and gnd pins of the digital input on the RC. The on/off sensor is the one with the two screws - and it doenst need power - its an on/off switch inside.
