Re: How does your team wire your Double Solenoids?

In the 2004 Programming reference guide on page 21 depicts an example
of "Solenoid Digital Outputs." Does code need to be added to use the
4-way valve [given in the kit] sucessfully with two pistons for the
arm. If so would someone mind sharing their code? Is this functionality in the 2005 FRC_default.hex file?

Referencing the full-size RC reference guide p.7, I assume that I can
use pin numbers 2,7,10,14, on the OI--wired to a spike relay to
control solenoids of pneumatics, which is what it sounds like people are saying here. Anyone have a picture of this completed?

After looking at the code -right now at least, I'm not seeing where the
signal is coming from to open/close the solenoid for a pneumatics
system.
