Unhappy 24v Conflict with cRIO and Solenoid
I am from team 3374 and we are a brand new team; I am wondering how we are supposed to connect the solenoid break-out. It needs a 24v power supply to make the KOP solenoids work; however, in the competition rules rule <R45> A. States "The cRIO-FRC power input must be connected to the 24 Vdc supply terminals of the Power Distibution Board. No other electrical load can be connected to these terminals." I found an article about how to connect the solenoids and it said that connecting the solenoid break-out was correct. Can anyone help me with this?
