Made a board with all the electrical components needed for Alpha bot.
Programming tried to test drive code on the Alpha bot but 1 of the Kraken motors had a faulty connection.
Unscrewed the cap of the Kraken connection adapter and retightened all the screws that made a connection. The motor was then fixed.
The CANchain was also broken.
Went around the entire can chain testing connections with a digital multimeter. Through re-doing all the CANchain connections we fixed the CANchain.
Programming checked to make sure the computer could see all the components. All components are visable.
YAY CANCHAIN!

Configured the new radios. They should all have their firmware updated.
There are 3 configured radios and 1 radio that was a dud out of the box. Put new radio on AlphaBot.
1/15/2025
Tested different retroreflective sensors with CORAL and ALGAE at different positions
Allen Bradley retroreflective sensor: Works for both CORAL and ALGAE, shows orange light if tripped, uses 12V
Long Distance Reflective Switch (OPB720A-06Z): Works with both ALGAE and CORAL, accurate when tripped, smaller than Allen Bradley sensor, uses 12V OMRON retroreflective sensor: Works with CORAL well, could be mounted with a cutout underneath the CORAL intake
