🎇Wiring

Be careful to match the 5V on the cable to the 5V on the case and the PCB and the RIO.

Do not use the included PWM-style cable for more than 100mA

Wiring to RoboRio

The primary way to interface with this sensor is plugging the Dupont style connector from the sensor into the RoboRIO.

When connector pins are on top, ground is on the right side.

The signal pin is a 12-bit absolute position reference with the lower bound being the ground pin and the upper bound being the 5V pin. This 5V is relative to the 5V rail on the Roborio, which is often not exactly 5V. This allows for a resolution of 1/4096*360 (~.09) degrees.

Use the "ANALOG IN" on the RIO

If you wish to wire directly to a Spark Max, please use the below example as a guideline:
