Re: how to build a VEX programming module
Well i also have a desctop PC. Perhapse I can program the robot with the PC and control it with my powerbook later? I have a usb to serial converter that works for both PC and mac. I think that's what i'll end up doing. I have an m232 converter, so i think i could send signals to the serial port with the powerbook if I program the the controller to read from the serial port. Otherwise I was wondering if I could change the rx1 and 2 ports to read a serial signal instead of the PWM signal it is currently programmed to read. Anyone done anything with this or have any comments?
