Wire wrist encoder to Spark Max #434

@auscompgeek

Description

@auscompgeek

This one may need a bit of thought into cable routing, since the motor controller is mounted on the moving part but the encoder isn't.

Note that we currently have a breakout board connected to this motor controller, but IIRC it doesn't break out the absolute encoder pin.

Things needed:

  • 1x data port breakout board
  • 1x JST-PH 6-pin cable (of appropriate length)
  • cable ties
  • soldering iron + solder
  • brainpower for cable management
  • code (duh)
