What is this?
The RSL is a large LED light used to determine the current status of the robot; it is mandatory for competition.
Ports
| Port | Wire Type | Current Draw | Required | Where is it? | Additional Info |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| La | 22 gauge | 60 miliamps | ✓ | Bottom of RSL | Positive Terminal |
| N | 22 gauge | 60 miliamps | ✓ | Bottom of RSL | Negative Terminal |
| Lb | 22 gauge | 60 miliamps | ✓ | Bottom of RSL | Positive Terminal |
The RSL has 3 power ports. The middle port is for the negative terminal (black wire). The two outer ports are for the positive terminal (red wires).
Run the main red wire through La, then connect La and Lb with a separate red wire that will act as a jumper cable. Connect La to S and N to Ground on the roboRIO.

| Mode | Meaning |

| ON and SOLID | Robot is on and disabled |
| ON and BLINKING | Robot is on and enabled |
