This is the main reason I say "if you can, notify your other alliance members". Don't pull your hands off the controls, but use this little period to make a plan for the match. If you want to be super sure, get your drive coach or codriver to tap you on the shoulder when the robot is back up and running, or reverse those roles so the drive coach or codriver watches the other teams and tells you the plan/details as they become available.
