Hello from team 253,

How do you program double solenoids. Please answer with some example code.

Thank You!

The DoubleSolenoid class is pretty easy to work with:


// Create a double solenoid with the forward channel in port 1 and the reverse
// channel in port 2
DoubleSolenoid solenoid = new DoubleSolenoid(1, 2);

// Setting values
solenoid.set(DoubleSolenoid.Value.kForward);   // Set the solenoid to forward
solenoid.set(DoubleSolenoid.Value.kReverse);   // Set the solenoid to reverse
solenoid.set(DoubleSolenoid.Value.kOff);       // Turn off the solenoid
