The Configuration Panel
Software
Each programming block has a confi guration panel in which
you can adjust the settings of the selected block. When a
block is selected in the work area, its confi guration panel
becomes visible and active at the bottom of the screen.
By changing the parameters on each confi guration panel, you
can change how a particular block will behave. For example,
to make your robot move faster, you can change the Power
[Power] property on the Move block confi guration panel.
The Controller
The fi ve buttons on the Controller communicate
from your computer to the NXT brick:
The Download button downloads the
program to the NXT. You can then run the
program from the NXT.
The NXT window button gives you access to
the NXT memory and communication
settings.
The Stop button stops a running program.
The Download and run selected button
downloads and runs just a pieces of your
program code (e.g., a single block or just
a few blocks). You will then be able to see
how the small sequence of your program
performs on the NXT without having to
download the whole program.
The Download and run button
downloads a program to the
NXT and then starts running the
program.
