Event Description
There are no special rules for this event. However there is a wrinkle to the autonomous mode regarding pre-loaded game elements. Important to note that, if these elements remain on your side of the wall after the autonomous period, they will count as elements scored for the opposing alliance. Teams need to consider this when planning pre-loaded elements prior to the match
We plan to support both 75MHz and VexNet, though we anticipate a majority of the teams will require crystals. Make sure your robots have the latest competition templates loaded prior to arrival. These templates allow selection of either VexNet or Crystal operation. Templates are available in the latest version of EasyC and described in the Programming Guide in this year's rules. This is the only special software required.
Remember, tethers are required when robots are operated outside the field of play. NO CRYSTALS are allowed in ANY robot, except during competition.
Autonomous Mode at the beginning of the match is triggered via the field control. Officials on the field will instruct your students when to plug into the control towers, and when to turn on their robots. The required competition template provides the capabilities for the robots to be controlled from the field control electronics. Students will NOT be allowed to touch robots to initiate autonomous
