Analog voltage

[bladetech932]

Could someone confirm that the analog input is 0-5v?

[EricVanWyk]

On the cRIO?

It is -10V to +10V input and a 5V power supply.

[bladetech932]

So I'm going to need a 0-10v input?

[EricVanWyk]

Nope. You can use anything that fits within -10 to +10, including 0 to 5

I've never use an analog sensor before what am going to get out of the vi?

I suggest you start here: http://decibel.ni.com/content/docs/DOC-14724

I know how to wire/program gyros, accelerometers, and encoders.
i was asking about analog inputs they dont have pre-written VIs for

There's a complete set of them.

WPI Robotics Library >> IO >> AnalogChannel

The Analog Get Voltage function is probably the one you'll be using. As the name implies, it returns the voltage present on the Analog Input pin.

Alright, i can work with that. thank you all!
