I think that this answers your first question:
Quote:
|
<R69> Compressed air for the pneumatic system on the ROBOT must be provided by one and only one compressor. This compressor may be either the compressor from the KOP, or an equivalent compressor that does not exceed any of the KOP compressor performance specifications (specifically: nominal 12v, 1.03 cfm flow rate, 120psi maximum working pressure). Compressed air shall not come from any other source. Off-board compressors must be controlled and powered by the ROBOT.

(emphasis mine)
I do not have an answer to your question about the cylinders.

Yes, you are correct. Even when all other databuses are totally out of bandwith, the PainInTheCalf Bus gets top priority. Good thinking ;-) - Joe Johnson [more]
