If you're not sure something is allowed, check the rulebook to see if it isn't allowed. If the rulebook is silent, you can assume that it is allowed.

In this case, the Manual isn't silent. I'd like to introduce you to [R80], particularly the first part of the blue box (indicated by blue text).

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 or newer.

Teams are permitted to use a portable computing device of their choice (laptop computer, PDAs, etc.) to host the Driver Station software while participating in competition Matches.

Please note that 19V DC, 2 amp power will be provided at the Player Station for Classmates provided in the KOPs via Classmate power adapters. The manufacturer has confimed that the power supply provided at the Player Station is compatible with both E09 and E11 Classmate versions. No 120 V AC port will be available.

The FMS will verify that the Driver Station software is correct before it will permit a Robot to operate on the Court.
