Each team has one timeout per game, which can be requested during
Breaktime
and 10 seconds before
game time.
The timeout can be used by attaching the chip with the matching color ribbon to the pit zone button, after
that a green STATUS light will begin to blink and the time will be suspended (the devices should be
programmed, see chapter 3.3.3.). The team can also use
Towel Timeout
, in order to do so, it is necessary to
attach the chip to the pit zone button(see fig. 2.6), after the judge’s confirmation, the point will be added to
the opposing team.
