PC Control of Vex processor
The sensors and interrupts of the Vex controller can be read pretty easily by downloading the "On Line" code and opening up a terminal emulator, setting the baud rate to 115200 and reading from the appropriate COM port. The Online code also lets you set the motors by moving a slider. Can anyone tell me how that's done? Obviously, a string of some sort is being written. Does anyone know the protocol for that?

Thanks!

Tac
