problem with programming solenoid vales

It seems ironic to me that a robotics competition would come down to human error, which is precisely what the field of robotics attempts to prevent. - David8696 [more]

Re: problem with programming solenoid vales

That's because you are using 12VDC solenoids.
The one solenoid that came in the 2010 KOP is 24VDC.
You have to wire the voltage that fits your solenoids. They are labeled.
