Re: Solenoid not firing off Solenoid Breakout
We had this problem earlier today. It ended up that we had a faulty solenoid module on the c-rio, and a faulty SMC.
When you run your code to fire the solenoid (try to use their example because it WORKS), activate the solenoid with the LV control. When you activate it, there should be a little LED on the solenoid module on the C-RIO that turns on. (and off when you turn off the solenoid). If that doesn't fire, then you have a faulty solenoid module.
After that, we replaced our SMC with a fresco just for testing, and that did the trick.
Hopefully this will help!
