Don't take it out to the official field, but I'm sure it'll help in the pits and on the practice field.

We ran a bunch of testing on the fields having to do with if the ethernet connection from the SCCE (field end FMS cabinet) to the DS was causing issues and it wasn't that (besides the physical breakage you guys are seeing). They don't allow you to have anything between the DS and the SCCE because they don't want you injecting anything besides the DS to cRio comm string in the system.

I don't like the DSes either (had nothing to do with its development....), we've been asked to work on a solution for it though.
