9. Motors 2-wire motors can be connected directly to ports 1 and 10 on the VEX Cortex The VEX Motor Controller 29 allows you to connect the VEX 2-wire Motors to any of the standard 3-wire ports on the VEX Cortex. To use the VEX Motor Controller 29, plug the 3-wire end into one of the MOTOR ports (2- 9) on your VEX Cortex Microcontroller.

10. ROBOTC - Programming 3. Complete Motor and Sensor Setup Allows you to configure and name all of the motors and sensors connected to your robot.

11. Analog Sensor Setup Type a name to describe the sensor. Choose the type of sensor – the only analog sensors for GTT are Line Follower and Potentiometer.

12. Sensor Setup Type a name to describe the digital sensor location or purpose. Both the limit and bumper switches are Touch Type. LED’s can be plugged in to dgtl9-dgtl12, the type is Digital Out.

13. Practice with bump switch: untilBump(bumpSwitch,5); wait(.5); startMotor(leftMotor,127); startMotor(rightMotor,-127); untilBump(bumpSwitch);
