1717
Robotics are in a safe condition. If any of the following criteria
1818
are not met, the offending component must be replaced with one in
1919
suitable condition, and the procedure restarted from the beginning.

1. Check that the cables between the power board and body of the
2221
battery are not damaged. The sheath must not have any holes in
2322
it.

2. Locate the yellow XT60 connector pair that joins the battery to
2624
the cable leading back to the power board. Check that the
2725
insulation surrounding these connectors and the attached wiring
2826
is undamaged.

3. In turn, give each of the wires attached to these connectors a
3128
gentle tug. The cables must not move relative to the connectors.

4. Locate the metal terminals that connect the battery cable to the
3430
power board. Check that the insulation surrounding these
3531
terminals and the attached wiring is undamaged.

5. In turn, give each of the wires attached to these terminals a
3833
gentle tug. The cables must not move.

2. Check that the parts of the robot that were built by the competitors
4136
are in a safe condition. If any of the following criteria are not
4237
met, the team must be instructed to make amendments to the robot.
43-

1. Check that there is a battery installed in the robot.
45-

2. Check that any additional power sources have already been
4740
authorised.

3. Leaving the battery physically installed, unplug the XT60
5042
connector.
51-

4. Check the battery's mounting holds the battery securely, and
5344
does not expose the battery to sharp edges.
54-

5. Check that the battery's casing is rigid, and strong -- i.e.
5646
bubble wrap is not suitable.
57-

6. Check that the cables between the power board and body of the
5948
battery do not pass through areas of the robot that could cause
6049
them to be damaged by moving mechanical parts.
61-
6250
7. Check that only the power board is connected to the battery (if
6351
the XT60 connector were currently connected).
64-
6552
8. Check that the power switch on the power board is easily
6653
accessible. This must be on the exterior of the robot, not
6754
behind any covers and ideally on the top.

11. Check that there is not an excessive amount of unshielded wire
7458
protruding from any of the green CamCon connectors.

12. In turn, give each of the wires attached to the green CamCon
7760
connectors a gentle tug. The cables must not move.
