Then there are 6 standard "error" messages. One for when the FMS reports a robot is E-Stopped. The other six cover Driver's station Ethernet unplugged, DS not responding, Radio not responding, RoboRIO not responding and Robot code failure.
When one of those events happens the Band does a haptic and displays something like:
Red 1 6543
Driver's Station not responding
That way, the FTA can watch the field rather than the field monitor but still be alerted immediately when there's a problem. Well, at least the FTAs that have a Microsoft Band and a Windows 10 phone or laptop.
