You can also put a 9472 in slot 7. I guess the document you are reading is 2 years old.

Haven't tried it myself (we don't even have a robot yet... don't ask), but might be worth looking into.

There are several problems with this. The battery voltage is read from slot 1, therefore the battery jumper must be installed on the analog bumper on slot 1. The Robot Signal Light must be connected to the digital sidecar on slot 4. The gyro accumulators are only connected to the first 2 channels of slot 1.
