Re: help on easyC

If I understand the question correctly, you are asking if easyC automatically relays the joystick values to the speed controllers to the motors; i.e. does easyC automaticall map joystick output to pwms. The answer to that is no; it is, however, very simple. You create an infinite while loop in the operator control section [while(true)], and then within that loop you put the code that maps your style of drive to the motors. easyC has "drag and drop" functions that allow you to drag, for instance "4 wheel tank drive" into the code window, and then use a GUI to assign axes and pwm outputs- very user friendly, very easy.

I'll be happy to help you out with any other questions you've got, and I hope I understood the current question correctly; just a tip, but the more detail you provide, and the more precise the language you use, the easier and more accurately one can answer your question!
