Re: Daisy Chain It is not possible, unfortunately.
This is a limitation of the hardware, not the software. |

Re: Daisy Chain
No, the mindsensors port splitter is not a legal part for this year's FTC tournament. However, you should post questions about the tournament rules to http://forums.usfirst.org/forumdisplay.php?f=26. It is the only place you can get official answers to those kinds of questions. _________________ Jeff McBride Benson Robotics Club |

Re: Daisy Chain Not entirely. It is legal to create custom sensors with the HiTechnic NXT Prototype Board which you can find on the Products of their web site: http://hitechnic.com/
There are quite a few things you can do with it but you will want to read all of the related posts in the FTC Forum to make sure that you work within the official rules. _________________ Jeff McBride Benson Robotics Club |
