Re: Lap counter, What port? Mounting Rule 18

Team 40 went to Suffield to test our 08 robot this weekend and the Signal wire is not even connected. The Flag basically has a little clear plastic box with a circuit inside connected to the flag pole. The circuit gives the robot zero feedback, it just leaches 5v power from the RC. I hope FIRST has implemented protection for teams that accidentally hook up the flag power to the 7.2v PWM lines.
