Question URGENT! We need help with the accelerometer

WE NEED HELP!
We are using autonomous mode for the first time this year and with only 12 days till the ship date, we havn't been able to figure out the following things:
1. Where (on the robot) the accelerometer is installed. Note: we have the TI
2. How and where to attach the wire to the rc controller (computer on the robot)
3. What the magnets are, how the work, and how they are installed.
4. How to program autonomous mode for the accelerometer. we saw the white paper on simple scripting and read through it SEVERAL TIMES. We do not now how to implement it into kevin's nav code. Is there any other way to use the accelerometer than that?
Any help is GREATLY APPRECIATED
THANK YOU in advance.
