stuff for engineering assessment

the stuff for practicing for my engineering assessment so i dont crash and fail

what is the difference between a servo and a motor?

a servo is capable of more precise and exact movements while a motor moves continuously. the servo can only go from 0-120 degrees.

how to make a line follower work

you use a dark and light colour within 1/4 - 1/8 of an inch and the value will change

how do you use the pontiometer

you rotate the wheel on the potentiometer, effecting the value

how do you use the limit switch

you switch the limit switch

how do you use the bumper switch

you press down on the button and it will change

how do you use the servo

allocate power to the servo and it should move

how do you turn the led on/off

turnLEDOn(yellow)

turnLEDOff(yellow)

how do you change the speed of a motor

startMotor(rightmotor, 63.5)

stopMotor(rightmotor)

startMotor(rightmotor, 127)

how do you control the servo position

setServo(servomotor, -127)

wait(2)

setServo(servomotor, 0)

wait(2)

setServo(servomotor, 127)

how do you set up the bumper switch

untilBump(bumpswitch)

how do you set up the pontiometer

untilPontiometerLessThan(2048, pontiometer)

turnLEDOn(yellow)

untilPontiometerGreaterThan(2048, pontiometer)

turnLEDOff(yellow)

how do you use the encoder

untilEncoderCounts(480, quad)

how to set up a line follower for a light/dark object

add the light and the dark object and divide by two.

do untilLight(number, linefollower)
