Electrical Controls Design


Overview

  • use actual items from each of the previous year's controls (see 1/12/14 notes)
  • use some aspects of prior year's color schemes (TBD)
  • no lights for the broken switches (not many switches will be used and they have an on/off tag built into them)
  • 'underglow': will come out the letter cutouts
  • speakers (TBD)

<br\>

Current Design State

ControlsProtoType2014.jpg
NOTE: click to view larger image

Todo

  • get paper sketch into inventor
  • decide if gear button is a 'normal' one or a push-pot
  • determine what will be used to map the buttons to a joystick
  • number of broken switches (with hip check can only have 5; but if hip check is handled within controls, we can have a 6th broken switch)
  • how will underglow be controlled
  • complete the parts list
  • how to attach hinges (need to stay within 14" depth)
  • decide if backpack straps are needed
  • talk about color scheme


Parts List (TBD)

Description Part# Order From Notes
E-net port
Power port
Joysticks (TBD)
Push Pot(TBD) might want two (one for manual shoot and one for gear)
