Re: Signal Light

Assuming you are using a C-rio based control system, the signal light is just an extension of the Green Digital Sidecar LED (all states and patterns are identical), however it was designed to be a safety feature to alert people to.
1) the robot is on and
2) who is actually controlling it.

For practice purposes, you can probably do without it, but do what you think is best here.
