Master Task List

  • Consolidate the IO Maps! There are two IO maps now -- one on this page (below), and one blank template one linked off main page at 2010:IO Map! Move the info here to there, or remove the other page and link mainpage here! Also, add CAN device id assignments with pwm assignments as backups.
  • Build 2 display boards for the field  (No longer being done)
  • We should hook up a 10k linear trim potentiometer to one of the motor controllers and also hook up one of the smaller motors (like an older window motor) to allow programming work with the position control capabilities that the CAN interface allows them.  See Jaguar Getting Started Guide page 22 for wiring guide.  Note that it expects a 0-3V input!!! 
  • Save the Earth - it's the only planet with chocolate (as far as we know)


BILL OF MATERIALS


Bill of Materials 2010


As these tasks are completed, mark them done and cross them out.  Don't delete them!

1. Rough in Power Wires. We know the position of the board on the robot from our CAD drawings. We know where the motors are going to be from our CAD drawings. Come up with a good measurement in CAD, select the appropriate gauge of wire and terminate the end which goes to the speed controller (ring terminal) or spike relay (female fast-on). To organize it better maybe have someone come up with a "cut list" (how long of what gauge wire) and once that cut list is done break it up for a bunch of people to do this. Please check all of your connections carefully.

          a.)  Drive Motors

          b.)  Kicker Motors

          c.)  Lifter Mech. Motors

                   i.)  Winch

                   ii.) Servo

                   iii.) Tilt

          d.)  Thrasher Motor

          e.)  Electromagnets


2. Rough in sensor Wires. Same idea as above. Most of the sensors will use the PWM wire we have. Be careful because some of these sensors will go directly to the cRIO (analog inputs) versus others which go to the actual electrical board. Again, only terminate one side of these cables.

         a.)  Drive Motor Encoders

         b.)  Magnetic Sensor for Kicker

         c.)  Gyro

         d.)  Lifter Limit Switch

         e.)  Banner Sensor

         f.)   Winch Pot

3. Gather pre-made PWM cables. There has been some talk of using the PWM interface for the speed controllers. We should find all the pre-made PWM cables we have and USE them. Remember in our drive train with the PWM interface we use the yellow/red/black-y-cables.

4. Find a leaf switch for Tom K. to model into the lifter design.

5. Sort of optional… We should be thinking of spares and the ability to have stuff ready to swap in and out… Fast-on connectors for any pots we're using would be a plus (pots like to break on our robots). Also switches… the leaf switch has some good give, however we should also have a few others ready to swap in (I assume that you'll just use female fast-ons to connect the switches). I'd like to see the pushbuttons on fast-on connectors as well because I'm not sure how much of a beat it will take with that arm pulling in the jam on it. Once you have extras made up, find a nice small box to put them in.

6. We're using window motors again… These are the ones that have the absolutely annoying connector that we can't find. Perhaps carefully cut away some of the plastic with a dremel and solder 6" pigtails onto the motor. If you key the pigtails (one with male fast-on one with female) make sure you do this exactly the same with the other motor.

7. Work with programming to give node-ids to the new Jaguar speed controllers (you'll noticed they're currently labeled 4-7, keep those as they are) and remember to label the Jags with a sharpie.

8. Paint the battery box? Red? Black? Camo? (nice job on it Matt!)

9. If painted and ready mount battery box (need to wait for mech to install cross member).

10.  The fisher-price motor for the front thrasher is presently wired to a 20A/30A slot - it needs to be changed to a 40A slot on the power distribution board.

11.  Update BOM.<span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);" />

12.  Remove all components from electrical board

13.  Swiss Cheese electrical board with 1" holes (make sure you don't get too close to the perimeter of the board

14.  Weigh Nylon HW against velcro to attach specific components.  Determine which is lighter and use that to reattach components.
