[FTC]: Matrix motor encoder 'pinouts'

[richjmaynard]

Hello all,

I realise this isn't a game-legal option, but given the current lack of support for the legacy controller and 9.6v motors I'd like to connect our legacy 9.6V Matrix motors directly to the new Modern Robotics motor controller So we as a rookie team can get some programming practice in.

I've connected red and black to the Anderson Powerpole connector and it runs fine. Next I'd like to connect the encoders, but I can't find any information on which wires are which, either on the 9.6v motors or on the MR Controller.

Can anyone help?

Matrix support is released as of yesterday.
