Re: FRC: Reset and Program Controls

You can make things very easy on the programmers by extending the switches all the way to the PC they're using. The program port only uses five of the available nine pins in a serial cable. We "stole" three of them with a little adapter at each end of the cable, putting a reset and program switch right at the programmer's fingertips.
