We set up our pneumatics tonight as what I could discern from the powerpoint on CD, but couldn't get the piston to stop at an arbitrary point, only at the ends of its stroke. We worked on it for about 3 hours in many different configurations but couldn't get any good results. I understand that the concept is to control the exhaust pressure, but since I am fairly new to this system I am having some difficulties. I assume my problem is the setup I used. Can you give an exact explanation of the pneumatic, wiring and component connections to use? Also, could you provide an example of the C code you used as well? Thanks, I appreciate it.
