Switched from REV to CTRE PCM #156

Closed BrownGenius closed 1 year ago

BrownGenius commented 1 year ago

The Competition Bot's REV pneumatics control module (PCM) was faulty, so was switched with the CTRE PCM. This required changes to the code.

@ParkerMeyers, was there a reason we were using REV's PneumaticHub API instead of the WPILib Compressor API? @rekhask, I think I solved the CAN ID issue. The default CAN ID for the PCM is "0" but we changed it to "6", so I explicitly pass in the CAN ID when creating the DoubleSolenoid. We will have to test on the actual bot on Monday.

0 should be reserved for the PDP. And yes, the old PCM had a broken can bus but this one should work fine.

The REV API was what it was designed to work with, I am not sure if it works with the normal compressor api

We still have to test the branch!
