Questions about solenoid connections

How did the old version of the SMC solenoid valve connect the connection line of the V5 Brain control from 2 lines to 3 lines? Do you have any specific drawings or operation procedures?

The Legacy solenoid connector plugs into the Legacy ports on the brain, not into the smart parts.

It does not appear as though vex has any documentation on how their solenoid adaptor cables work.

From using them and looking at them I can infer that under the black heatshrink in the middle of the cableb there is some form of circuit that converts the signal from the brain to one that the solenoid can use. (Probably just on/off (power/no power)).

If I remember in a month when my organization’s mandatory hiatus from access to the robotics roomis over, I’ll seenif my coach will ler me have one of our old, broken solenoid cables to take the heatshrink off of it, and to see and take photos of exactly how it really works.
