What should I set the top to? Can it be any number I want? And if so what would be the difference between, for example, 2 and 3?

And one of the posts said the top value is the one you set your motor to, so I figured this was just the motor output. However, one of the pics of code had a box with 1 on top and -1 on the bottom and the actual motor set leading from the left edge of the PID. Which is the correct way for our robot?
