As pointed out, no rule exists either way, but the general trend of other "offboard compressor" rules is that the Spike has to be on the robot.

If you want to be certain, please ask Q&A for the official answer. Your inspectors will thank you for doing so. "I read on Chief Delphi" is not a reason your robot should be legal. On the other hand, "Q&A says thus-and-so and our robot matches the Q&A, and here's the Q&A in print" has a pretty high likelihood of getting you past inspection with no problem if your robot actually does match.

Can you post a wiring diagram for your compressor and the code you're using? It is nearly impossible for us to troubleshoot without this info. Thanks!

Re: SPIKE

Did you turn your robot on? jk check if you put the spike pwn cable in the right slot and if you have a multi-meter check if your spike is getting power, and if power is going to the compresor.
