Since we need to count to 2 minutes, we will need to use the time10 version instead. The default time1 can only count to around 30 seconds (see description below). Timers 3 Carnegie Mellon Robotics Academy / For use with VEX Robotics Systems This method can not be extended to work for behaviors where the robot has to run other commands during the waiting period. The robot will blindly move forward for 1 second. Time (not Timer) behaviorTurns on both motors, then goes to sleep for 1 second with the motors still running.

For simplicity, it is shown without any scaling on the remote control commands (which is usuallly customized based on driver preference).īIfiAutonomousMode = false bMotorReflected = 1

Your program does not currently enforce this rule, and so your robot is not yet tournament legal! Lets fix that.Īt first glance, it seems that since we already know how to use the wait1Msec(time) command to make the robot go straight or turn for a certain amount of time, we should be able to follow the same pattern to make the robot do any other behavior for a length of time.īut, try as we might, we cant seem to find the right place to put the command that will make it work! Below is the Radio Control code from the end of the Control Mapping chapter. The rules for the game state that you have only two minutes from the starting signal to control your robot, and then your robot must stop responding to commands or face disqualification. In this lesson, you will learn how Timers differ from simple wait1Msec commands, and how ROBOTC handles them.
