Re: [OCCRA]: OCCRA OCT-NE 10/14/09 Basic VEX Workshop PDF

Andrew,
So, are you able to operate with the VEXnet programming template at your respective high school with the VEX robot? VEXnet is new to me this year as well and I have not experimented with it as much as some students -- like yourself.

The VEX Inspection template was created with EasyC software in mind, hence, digital inputs 5 & 6 for start and stop input,
button switches. I have created a programming example in the basic workshop on how to implement. Can you propose a modification to the MPLAB template for using a digital input for a start and stop switch? That info is not in front of me right now.

Vexnet software does switch between auton and remote control. Using start switch kind of promotes a semi-auton mode,
auton activates, then hit start switch to activate robot. (robot should not activate automatically with this feature ).
