The control system manual, Section 5, defines the acronym BFL as follows:
Quote:
|
BFL – Big Fancy Light or Big Flashing Light (colloquial terms for the Robot Signal Light)
|
The correct terminology is Robot Signal Light or RSL as shown further down the same document:
It is also referenced as the Robot Signal Light or RSL in the Power Distribution Diagram and rule <R58>
Quote:
<R58> ROBOTS shall use the diagnostic Robot Signal Light provided in the Kit Of Parts. It must be mounted on the ROBOT such that it is easily visible while standing three feet in front of the ROBOT in the STARTING CONFIGURATION. The Robot Signal Light must be connected
to the “RSL” supply terminals on the Digital Sidecar, which provides power and control for the light. The team has no direct control over the light and no programming is required.
