I think you program your bot to hold onto the Keeper (if you didn’t drop it in auton) and let your drivers place it on the floor. In the disabled period between auton and tele all spike outputs are 0 and pwm (victors) are 127. If you have a single solenoid it will return to its default state. You shouldn't worry about what your bot does when disabled (it is out of your control you will not be penalized and the keeper might count if you score it right after being disabled). Just focus on what it does when tele mode begins. Don’t release and score a Late keeper before the drivers can even touch the controls.
