paper: New Control Functions - Drive System Testing

[Chris Fultz]

There is no reason capable teams cannot implement their own logic to manage this beyond "off/on", but this will really save a lot of teams without that capability. I could also see many teams turning off the protection instead of determing why it was tripping and how to manage it.

For 2014, we knew if our compressor was on, our winch was really slow to retract our launcher. In software, we switched off the compressor when the winch motors were turned on. Using the new control capability, we could make that decision based on battery voltage and possibly make better decisions.
