Answered: Partner Port

This has been discussed in the college competition forums, but not yet for the high school one.

So a list of partner-port related questions:

During competition, are we allowed to:

1. Plug anything we want (ie a laptop, custom controller, etc…) into the partner port?
2. Plug anything we want into the programming port?

Just a reminder, the above linked response is from the 2011/12 season, and does not necessarily apply to the 2013/14 season.

In the High School / Middle School competition, during matches, teams are not permitted to have anything plugged into the partner port aside from another VEXnet Joystick or Partner Joystick. Nothing may be plugged into the programming port.
