Eragon301 is an unknown quantity at this point
Two or more robots at the same time

How do you operate two or more FIRST robots in the same vicinity for practice? We know that you can do it, but we don’t know how, we have a few ideas, but don’t want to screw anything up. Any and all help will be appreciated.

You need to change the channel you're operating on, on the OI.

There should be documentation of how to do this on the Innovation First website.

Re: Two or more robots at the same time

As I recall, you need to set the MSB of the teamnumber dipswitch to 1 (ie team numbers over 2048), and then the 'channel' dipswitch will be activated. then you just pick a different channel from 40 and away you go.
