Re: Using pressure pad to control during Autonomous

I have a question involving the pressure pad. The camera system is powered by a PWM cable hooked to the RC. If the Human Player were to step off the pad, would the power pin on the PWM be turned off, or would power still be present, but no traffic be allowed on the comm pin. This is also relevent for custom circuitry which may have internal memory, will stepping off of the pressure pad de-power this equipment, or merely cease communication.

Also, on a related topic, what is the FIRST policy towards wearable controls? Is it acceptable to have a quick disconnect, or must the team use their match time to put on the control system.
