pwm01 = pwm_in1 / 5 + 100;

the names used are all defined in ifi_aliases.h. the code would probably go into user_routines.c which runs every 18.5 ms.

This is exactly what I'm looking for -- thanks! Is there documentation on this anywhere, besides reading the source code comments? How does one know what rc_dig_in01, pwm01 and pwm_in1 are?

Or sample programs, simpler than the VexCode on vexlabs.com? Something like the GearToothTest that Brad has in WPILib, mentioned in the previous post?

Again, thanks very much, I feel like I'm at least getting closer to understanding how to program without EasyC.
