That info is the very last thing in Chapter 1 (http://www.usfirst.org/uploadedFiles/Community/FRC/Game_and_Season__Info/2010_Assets/1-2010FRCControlSystem-Introduction-Rev-0.5%20.pdf) of the Control System Manual.


Robot Signal Light – this amber light allows teams to troubleshoot their robot while on the field. There are 5 states:

Solid ON = Autonomous Enabled

Solid ON, but blinks OFF every 1.5s = Teleoperated Enabled

Slow Blink (900ms on / 900ms off) = System Disabled; caused by system watchdog, user watchdog, or Driver's Station set to disabled

Fast-Slow Blink (200ms on / 900ms off) - Low battery (<12 Volts) or no user code and system disabled either by system watchdog, user watchdog, or Driver's Station set to disabled

Fast Blink (200ms on / 200ms off) - System error: No driver's station communication, bad cRIO Image, bad team ID, extensive communication errors.

Mark's list is for the 2010 image. If you're still running a 2009 image, see: http://decibel.ni.com/content/docs/DOC-3120. They're slightly different
