1. Overview of New System Beta Team from Wilsonville 1425 Wilsonville Robotics – Code Xero 2550 Oregon City Robotics

2. At a glance Industrial Controller from NI Everything else new except Spikes

3. Advantages of New System Labview environment ◦ Teams with less SW experience can do more complex stuff than before Support of NI and WindRiver for development and debug environments Smaller footprint of power distribution modules Several nifty new features

4. Disadvantages of New System Controller Size/Weight/Form Factor ◦ Twice the footprint, weighs over 2 lbs. ◦ Modules with bumpers not compact ◦ Will need to be protected from contact Cost and availability ◦ Equipping teams for parallel development will be a challenge New Jaguar speed controllers ◦ Larger footprint New control system less tolerant of low robot battery voltage

5. Elements of the New System Digital Sidecar Power Distribution Board Analog Bumper Pneumatics Bumper Driver Station Wireless Interface (802.11) Camera Jaguar Speed Controller

6. Digital Sidecar Connects to cRIO9403 with 32-pin cable Provides ◦ 10 PWM outputs (Victors, Jaguars, RC servos)  Can be configured on a per-output basis to drive 6V RC servos with jumpers ◦ 14 GPIO with +5V on each ◦ 16 Relay Outputs ◦ I 2 C headers (Standard and NXT-compatible) ◦ 12V supply,  Provides +5V output  Reverse polarity protected

8. Power Distribution Module Custom Design by FIRST 6-15 VDC, reverse polarity protected Metric shanks, not SAE! 8 outputs for 40A breakers 12 outputs for 30A/20A breakers 24VDC output for CompactRIO 12V output for gaming adapter 5V output for camera or other devices LED’s for power supplies and blown fuses

9. Power Distribution Module

10. Power Distribution Diagram

11. Analog Bumper 5V/3A for powering sensors 8 Analog Inputs, 3 pin PWM cable config. Mounts to NI 9201 Analog Module Configurable to make one input capable of measuring battery voltage LED to indicate bumper has power Power to bumper requires wiring to power distribution module

12. Analog Bumper

13. Pneumatics Bumper Reverse-battery protection 8 Outputs to directly drive solenoids Mounts to NI 9472 Digital Module Means you don’t have to use Spikes to drive solenoids anymore ◦ Save weight, space and money LED to indicate bumper has power Power to bumper requires wiring to power distribution module

14. Pneumatics Bumper

15. Driver Station 4 USB connections for joysticks of all kinds 2 Ethernet jacks ◦ Network connection (competition) ◦ Switched connection for laptop 4 Analog Inputs on 3-pin connectors 8 Digital Inputs on 3-pin connectors 8 Digital Outputs on 3-pin connectors Wall wart for power (always required) Upgradeable via USB stick

16. Driver Station (DS)

17. Operator Interface Configuration

18. Wireless Interface – 802.11 Radio on the robot is 802.11 gaming adapter ◦ Wireless bridge: cRIO and Access Point You will assign fixed IP addresses to your components, using team number Use an AP during build season, connect to the wired network at the competition Field will use 5 GHz band (802.11 a) to avoid overlap and interference

19. Network Diagram – Your Robot

20. Ethernet Camera – Axis 206 Streaming color video Connects to RJ45 on cRIO Plays video on laptop Axis application Labview video viewer

21. Jaguar Motor Controller Limit Switch Inputs Controller Area Network Bus It’s bigger, but ….. See Chief Delphi for more details and blogs

22. Interesting Things to Know But, don’t worry ….documentation is coming

23. Working the Wago Yes ! NO ! Use the Wago tool provided Take care to insert directly at a fixed angle, pressing straight in Do not pry. The goal is to open the spring by pressing in the screwdriver, not by prying End View

24. Living in Harmony with 802.11 A couple of simple configs on the Linksys AP will save you trouble Ways to set up your development network so it runs your robot, and gives you access to network drives/printers Stay away from 802.11n settings on AP Learn how to set static IP addresses on your PC
