Re: communication between the robot controller and the interface

if it is the FRC controllers you must tether both interfaces, power them up, then change the dip switches that are marked as "Team Number" these switches are set in binary. After you change the team number then you can unhook the tether cord and use your radios. In order to run 2 robots you will need 2 R/C radios and controllers, as well as 2 O/I's.

If it is a VEX robot then you will need to remote controls, 2 receivers that are plugged in to your controller(s) and 2 different radio crystals (radio channels/frequencies)
