I imagine that if you were using EasyC, almost nothing would have to be done different than on a VEX robot. However, we were using MPLAB, so it was simply a matter of writing an interrupt driven routine to measure when the echo came back from whatever we were pinging. It's identical to most other ultrasonic sensors, so you could read more about how to code for them elsewhere.
