Re: WiFi in pits

I would assume if it is anything like last year you will need to teather the robot for any testing/running of the robot in the pits....

I will find the rule and site it give me a min...


[EDIT] Found it:
Every team should know, understand, and follow
the safety rules.
• Do not run in the venue.
• Wear closed-toed shoes to protect feet and toes.
• Charge batteries in an open, well-ventilated area. Do not charge near an open flame or
near equipment that may produce sparks. Do not use smoking materials in the battery
charging area. Charge in an upright position. It is not safe to charge the SLA battery in
an inverted position. Should your battery leak, ask the Pit Administration Supervisor for
baking soda to absorb the acid.
• Open flames are not allowed in any of the buildings
• Only the drayage company may handle loading robots in and out.
• Robots may be operated via wireless control only on the competition or practice fields.
• Two-way radios are not allowed.
[/EDIT]


hope that helps
