Re: Team Update #11

Please note the updated software links for Labview and Driver's station as well as the link to NI's known issues list.

Please also note the reference to the pressure relief valve. Teams have reported that the relief valve as shipped is not set to trip at 125 psi.

"<R77> The relief valve must be attached directly to the compressor. If the relief valve is already set to 125psi, teams are not allowed to adjust it. If the relief valve is not set to 125psi, teams are required to adjust to release air at 125psi. The valve may or may not have been calibrated prior to being supplied to teams."

If you are using pneumatics on your robot this year, be prepared to check the operation of this component.
