Goals:

Once upper assembly has been mounted by the mechanical team the following should happen

1.) route and patch in 6AWG power cables
2.) route and patch in Drive motor wires
3.) route and patch in Drive encoders (only use one phase and remember to wrap the connections with electrical tape)
4.) route and patch in Mouse encoder wires (only need one phase from each direction).
5.) Work with Mike W./Alex W. on getting the top spinner encoder mounted.
6.) route and patch in upper mechanism motors
7.) route and patch in upper mechanism sensors

There are diagrams on the wiki regarding how wires are routed. All the wires we've been pre-cutting are based on these drawings so it would be "really really good" to follow them. They are as follows:

Due to the placement of the board, be VERY aware of where you route wires ESPECIALLY when it runs alongside of chain…


Tasks Finished:

1. Connected all upper and lower motor wires.

2. Connected drive motor sensor wires.

3. Connected mouse sensor wires.

4. Connected limit switch sensor wires.

5. Changed small motor connectors to smaller fast-ons.
