Re: Power Distribution
OK, I'm not finding some info I'm looking for... where does it state which motors can/must be on the spikes, and which on the victors? The diagram shows some, but not all of the motors. In particular, window motors aren't shown. Is this hidden somewhere else?

In the Robot Rules, Section 5 "<R78> CIM motors and Fisher-Price motors must be connected to Speed Controllers. They may not be connected to Relay Modules." The other motors may be connected to spikes but must be fused accordingly... "<R83> Speed Controllers may be protected by 20A, 30A, or 40A Circuit Breakers. Speed Controllers may power motors or devices of any size. <R84> SPIKE Relay Modules must be protected with a 20A Circuit Breaker. Multiple devices may be connected to Relay Modules if desired (but only one motor may be connected to each Relay Module)." |

Re: Power Distribution
Al,
Thanks for quoting the applicable rules. I had seen the first sentens of R78, but missed the part about "The other motors..." I think I saw someone post in another thread that the Taigene shouldn't be connected to a spike either. |
