Encoder output wiring

Where and how are the encoders' channels A and B outputs wired to the RoboRIO? There are only loose wires, so not even a plug to give us a clue.

This year, we sort of a rookie group with respect to encoders and the RoboRIO. We've pored over the documentation, but we can't find the information.

Re: Encoder output wiring

You will have to either crimp them into plugs manually, or solder them onto wires already crimped in plugs. PWM plugs are compatible.

I found this diagram from a previous thread, and it is a good illustration of what it needs to look like.
