Here's what you'll need.
1) Section 2.0 of the robot.pdf file. It was erroneously omitted on the initial release, but they have since posted it. Section 2 outlines all of the eletrical requirements for your robot.
2) A copy of the InnovationFIRST Control manual. You can download that from the IFI website. Contained in the document are tables defining the pin definitions for the analog and digital data ports on the robot controller.

Analog inputs included in the kit are potentiometers and the yaw rate sensor. Be careful with the pots, you wire them differently on the robot than you do on the operator interface. Digital inputs are limits switches, pressure switches, and optical sensors.

That should be enough to get you going. Remember to read all of the docs carefully before you power up the first time and make sure you have somebody ready to turn off the circuit breaker.

Good luck, I hope it helped.
