To answer the second part of your question about the console. In the left sidebar you should see the tree that shows what's running on your target (see page 7 of the document I referenced above). I'm writing this from memory so the exact menus might be slightly different. Right click on the entry for VxWorks... go to Target Tools -> Target Console. Any printf that you put in your code (don't forget to #include <stdio.h>) will show up in this console. This is extremely useful in debugging.

If you lose connection with your robot, you will need to reopen this console.
