Re: No RSL on Digital Sidecar

Russ

During Beta testing the quality control or manufacturing process required us to send back components to be fixed.

On the digital side cars

One team, Camelback High School, had it working briefly then it went out, no longer functioning and no green light on the power indicator. They swapped it out for their spare, having made no wiring modifications and it is now working.

Another team. Maryvalle High School, their first one was working and then all of a sudden, having done nothing at all, it stopped working, the green power light is on continuously with no blinking. Their second one was then installed and the green light does not come on at all.

Ours, team 842, was working for four weeks and then stopped working for no reason at all. We swapped the second one in having made no wiring changes and it is working fine.

This series of malfunction might not prove that is is defective, but it looks awfully suspicious. We are going to buy two more sidecars for when the next one goes out.

If you can shed any light on this we would be eternally grateful.
