The ROBOTC Firmware enables you to download ROBOTC programs to your robot and utilize the various debug windows. Communication Port To program directly over the USB A-to-A cable, select the option that specifys the USB Wired Cable. Platform Tab Make sure that the Platform tab is selected on the ROBOTC Preferences window.Дўc. Using the VEX Cortex with ROBOTC (cont.) 2b. Go to View > Preferences and select Detailed Preferences. Specify how your Cortex is connected to the computer in the ROBOTC Preferences.Дўa. Turn the Cortex ON Make sure a 7.2V Robot battery is connected and move the POWER switch on the Cortex to ON.Дў. Connect the Cortex to your PC Use the USB A-to-A cable to connect your Cortex to your PC.ДЎb. Once the cable is attached, move the POWER switch to the ON position.ДЎa. Leaving the POWER switch in the OFF position, connect your Cortex to the computer using the USB A-to-A cable. Downloading using USB only is effective for writing and testing autonomous-only programs that do no require a VEXnet link. This method instructs the robot to immediately run the program stored in memory when it is powered on, and skips the intial VEXnet link setup. Downloading Using USB Only When programming the VEX Cortex, a USB A-to-A cable can be used to directly connect your computer to the Cortex.
