There are rules that apply for off-board compressors so if you choose, those rules also apply. If you don't quite understand the off-board rules, think that the system design must be the same as if everything was on the robot. All of the same parts are required and the same power on test as well. You can have certain parts off board but the compressor must still be controlled by the Crio, pressure switch and Spike and the power must come from the robot battery not a second battery.

Question regarding use of off robot compressors. do we follow the same rules to pre charge the system while you are waiting in queue? We have a rather large reservoir this year and it can take up to 1:30 minutes to charge completely. Can we use an off board system to charge the system and then use the on board system during the match?

If you come to a FRC event to see a robot competition, you are missing the point.
