Re: How to program phneumatics?

You are using the Advanced Framework correct?
Want to post the vi of what you tried to do and we can help correct it?

Are you having trouble with any specific thing, such as, activating the solenoid when you pull a trigger?

Re: How to program phneumatics?

Correct me if I'm wrong:

The pneumatic bumper has 8 outputs, so it can drive 4 solenoids. You basically have to program the pair of outputs connected to one solenoid to have opposite states. Say you have output 0 and 1 connected to a solenoid. Output 0 is connected to the solenoid and the solenoid is connected to the piston in such a way that when output 0 is on and 1 is off, the piston extends. In that case, when output 0 is off and 1 is on, the piston would retract.

There are a few examples in the examples/FRC folder that may help.

Unhappy Re: How to program phneumatics?

Ok so i have no idea where to begin i tried the examples that i found in the programming support and it didn't work and the example in the forum pneumatics didn't work either.
