E128 and Peripherals
Shown above is the pin-out of the E128. The strategy switches (displayed below) not only communicated whether the bot was playing on the red or green side, but also lit the corresponding LEDs.
A single throw, double pole switch controls the Team Color input to the microcontroller (far left). The other two switches dictate game strategy: the middle switch selects overtime (or non-overtime) play, and the right switch changes the game mode from half-court to full-court.
Two red and tow green LED’s were added below a frosted piece of acrylic to show the robot’s team affiliation. When turned on, these lights resembled the glowing eyes of a Jawa.
