Re: pneumatics help

okay our problem is the complete wiring of the pneumatics... First we are using the festo valve which retracts the actuator automatically after being used. The compressor is already setup to work manually with the valve... however we don't know how to integrate the compressor into the electronics so that it works on its own and stops and 115psi with the pressure switch/regulator...

Conclusively the wiring for the direct operation of the compressor on its own is needed. and the activation of the festo valve independently with the joysticks..
We dont know were to connect the parts into...not sure weather to use spikes.. or the pneumatics bumper... I code for the programming we will use the samples provided... and after identification of what parts are needed were are they needed to obtain power and be triggered...
