16. Lab Instructions
Using Microsoft Word Create a Program Specification Table (see example) use command “insert (tab)”, “table” (5 rows, 6 columns) in Word then fill in details.
Add a basic flow chart for controlling the robot to the word document. Flow chart symbols are located under “insert (tab)”, “shapes”
Flow chart must show joystick input monitoring, left motor control, and right motor control at a minimum.
Save file using your name as the file name.
