Getting StartedBefore you can start using PID control for the VEX Cortex in ROBOTC, you must make sure you have all of the required components. There are two main components required to get started: a VEX 269 or 369 motor with an Integrated Motor Encoder (IME) installed, and a copy of ROBOTC for Cortex/PIC version 3.6.1 or higher. If you wish to control more than one motor using PID (on a robot, for example), you will need to make sure each motor that is PID controlled has an IME installed and is connected to the Cortex correctly. If you are unsure of how to configure the IME's inside of ROBOTC, please see our IME programming guide before continuing. |
