Question Re: Iterative Robot - Need Help!!!

Hello all,

I am a rookie mentor w/ only one experienced programmer. He is learning Java. I am an EE for process controls & automation, but my programming is platform specific. I can read the existing Java code from last year's robot, but we are adding & changing things. I have a few quick questions
1) Where can I find who to use the "iterative Robot" class's methods?
2) Where can I see or program to map the physical I/O to things like Jaguars & ultrasonic sensors?
3) Can I use a relay output point to turn on a motor (w/ the 3 wire pig tail and the 2 power wires) or should I wire them to a PWM point and simply send it a full speed signal?
4) Is there an input that will work with the PWM output of an ultrasonic sensor (300 micro-seconds to 9999 micro-seconds) or do I have to use the voltage analog output from the sensor?
