E-Stop Check:

In the back of the GVR-Bot chassis is a red and black wire with a connector on it. These are the leads for the e-stop. The e-stop is likely for the motors, but the GVR-Bot Status spreadsheet is where you can look to confirm that. Look for your GVR-Bot's ID, and check the "e-stop" entry. These leads need to be shorted for the robot to work correctly; if there is not already a jump cable bridging the leads, you will need to install one. There is not a ready supply, so this is something you will have to build yourself; if you are unable to find the correct connector housing, you can use two crimp pins of the appropriate gender and size, and a roughly two inch length 16 AWG solid core wire. Form the wire into a loop, and put heatshrink around the loop and the pins to emulate the connector case.
