Hello forumers,
Going into next season I want to be as organized as possible, especially on the robot. My robot’s wire management was a hot mess this season.
What are some tips that y’all have for wire/pneumatics tubing management to make sure it is neat.
It helps to use the vex wire stock and crimp your own wires, but the biggest tips are just adding the permanent cables on last, not using just random ports, and using a lot of zipties
I like to color code the wires using the zipties so when I’m trying to figure out which wire goes to what I can tell by the color of ziptie used to secure it.
Having a port convention is great for wire management. (e.g. ports 1-6 are drive, 7-10 are sensors, etc.) Makes it easier for replacing ports, so you don’t have to pull up a diagram every time.
