A team can insert an additional dash and a letter (“A”, “B”, “C”, etc.) if the team has more than one set of Android phones. +The official rules (see ) of the FIRST Tech Challenge require that you change the Wi-Fi name of your smartphones to include your team number and “-RC” if the phone is a Robot Controller or “-DS” if it is a Driver Station. A team can insert an additional dash and a letter (“A”, “B”, “C”, etc.) if the team has more than one set of Android phones. If, for example, a team has a team number of 9999 and the team has multiple sets of phones, the team might decide to name one phone “9999-C-RC” for the Robot Controller and the other phone “9999-C-DS” for the Driver Station. The “-C” indicates that these devices belong to the third set of phones for this team. + + Note that it will take an estimated 5 minutes per phone to complete this task. | Step| Image |
