To get 24VDC out of the solenoid breakout you put 24V from the cRIO port of the Power Distribution Board into it.
EDIT: Also I'm definitely a pneumatics newbie but I don't understand one of the concepts in the Pneumatics for Newbies guide on the Team 358 website. The guide suggests that you would be able to run a 2"x12" cylinder (38cu in. at 60PSI) off of a single accumulator (listed as 18.5 cu in @120PSI) once. While this would be true if you could evacuate all the air from the accumulator and send it into the cylinder, in actuality can't you only run a 2"x6" cylinder once at the full 60PSI? After running this cylinder once the volume of air in the accumulator would be cut in half so the pressure should be cut in half as well, right?
