Re: Field Electronics

Even if you were to mechanically duplicate the SCC's, the Scorpion Case, the displays and E-Stops, and close to 100 other pieces of hardware, you still would have to duplicate the software and coded side of everything. While the FMS (Lite) software is out there, the server setup and things like PLC Code are not public domain.

If you need a field for a pre or post season event, they can be rented from FIRST HQ. If you are just looking for a field setup to run during the season and build time to have a single to a number of teams play and practice on, then thats when FMS Lite, a good router, and lots of Cat-5 cables come in handy.
