Program Pnuematics

[Taxi Quinn]

I have a Team Member who is needing help in Programming. One of his MAJOR problems is he does not know how to program Pnuematics. If you have any links that will help, or advice, please comment. I will have more post soon probably. All help is appreciated. Thank You.

What language?

There are examples of each we can direct you to.

You can talk at them, but they won't answer except maybe to sigh...

There is a compressor example on the LabVIEW startup screen you can click on to see how it's done.

It is in the c/java manual on the WPI website!

our programmer is using labview, by the way....

[Taxi Quinn]

And Where Can i find that. Do you have a link

[Taxi Quinn]

WE USE LABVIEW

The trouble with the example is that it is setup as a stand-alone program.
It will need to be translated somewhat to fit it into this year's default framework.

For instance, the compressor open and enabled should probably go in Begin.vi

The solenoid stuff belongs in Teleop.vi or Autonomous Independent.vi

Let me know if your programmer needs more and I can knock out a few screenshots.

Mark,

We will be programming in labview for the compressor control. If you could include some screen shots for guidance, that would be helpful.

Here are those screenshot examples. The autonomous certainly isn't complete. In Auto the robot will turn to face the target, then kick. Of course there won't be a ball there unless you do some more Auto work.

We have a page of screenshot examples from last year that might help some, but they haven't been updated to the 2010 style yet. We'll probably get to that this Sunday.

Thanks Mark!

Thanks that helped. but there is no way to control the psi with labview?

[Mark McLeod]

There isn't any device that LabVIEW can control that adjusts the psi.
You can develop your own device, but some kind of device would be necessary.
