620: VUR6 B and VRU9
Rule VUR6 B states that electronics cannot interface with VEX solenoids but VUR9 states we are allowed to buy commercially available pneumatics. Are we allowed to interface the commercially available pneumatic solenoids we purchase with custom electronics. Some commercially available pneumatic solenoids may exceed the current limit of the V5 3 wire ports. There is no competitive advantage to using the custom electronics.
Answered by Game Design Committee
Yes, this would be permissible. We will clarify VUR5 and VUR6 in the August 14th Game Manual update accordingly.
