Power Distribution

Items specifically prohibited from use on the Robot include:

• circuit breakers used on the Power Distribution (PD) Board that are different from the Snap Action breakers provided in the KOP, and
• PD Boards and/or fuse panels other than the single PD Board provided in the KOP since 2009, and.

Operator Console
[R80]
The Driver Station software provided on the Kit of Parts website is the only tool permitted to specify and communicate the operating mode (i.e. Autonomous/Teleop) and operating state (enable/disable) to the Robot. The Driver Station software must be revision 11.30.11.00 01.07.12.00 or newer.

In the following, the section on MAR WFFA is new, and the changes to the section before it were to change it to MI procedure only.
