Work for Next Meeting

  • Finish wiring practice bot IN THIS ORDER
  • PLEASE KEEP WIRING ORGANIZED
    • Mount and wire last Victor SP and Talon SRX
      • To lexan strip next to tanks
      • Mount the victor facing towards the front of the robot, SRX on the back
      • Wire the power for them from PDB Check comp bot for correct slots
      • Wire PWM to roboRIO
    • Wire CAN chain in this order
      • Start at roboRIO
      • Wire from RIO to the PCM close to rear of robot
      • That PCM is already connected to the next one
      • Wire from frontmost PCM to the Talon SRX
      • Wire from Talon SRX to the PDB
    • Pneumatics system
      • Attach T fittings to these components using Teflon
        • Electronic switch
        • Manual release valve
        • 2 pressure gauges
        • Analog pressure sensor
      • Connect compressor output to far top tank with these in series
        • Electronic switch (must be wired to same PCM as compressor)
        • Analog pressure sensor (must be wired to roboRIO analog 0)
        • Manual release valve
      • Link all tanks together
      • Connect tank output to gauge then to regulator input
      • Connect regulator output to gauge then to solenoid block input
      • Connect first solenoid A channel to Y-splitter then to front of shifter pistons on both sides
      • Connect first solenoid B channel to Y-splitter then to rear of shifter pistons on both sides

 

  • Finish up auto modes and test like crazy
  • SB stuff
    • Put latest SB as default launched dashboard for both DSs.
    • Test PID modifiers.
    • Theme it! (we can probably just modify the highlights on the default Material Dark design).
    • Create comp JSON layout.

On Schedule?

Gotta go fast
