35+
36+
If you see a yellow circled exclamation icon on your DS screen and touch it, a message will pop up
37+
temporarily and say "*DS* does not match *DS*, see the FTC Competition Manual".
38+
Note: *DS* is the current name of the Driver Station, and *RC* is the current Robot Controller name.
39+
40+
This is because the DS and RC names do not match. You should change both names to include your team
41+
number as indicated above, as required by the Competition Manual.
