Robocoach signals loophole?

[jacobhurwitz]

I hadn't read section 8 yet. After someone above mentioned R65, I read it and saw this clause that signaling devices shall "not use changes in the signal states to encode or transmit larger messages (e.g. Morse code)." I guess this means that the "loophole" wouldn't work.

I still don't know that this is true. That's a restriction on the capabilities of the signaling device, isn't it? I don't see any restrictions whatsoever on the behavior of your software, other than for safety reasons.

If you were really clever, you could implement your four instructions as something like "Virtual Button 1, Virtual Button 2, Next Button Set, Previous Button Set" Technically that would be 4 instructions, but would give you practically unlimited results.

yeah but aren't there controls that have programmable buttons?

cant you just say this button
but that button would include a series of programed keys
