Getting Started

DETAILS ON GETTING STARTED

QUICK START GUIDE:

1. Make sure you have Mindstorms NXT software installed on your computer.

2. Use a LEGO NXT kit and make a 2-motor NXT car (or this newer version).

3. Download all the files needed to your computer.

4. Open the file NXTkinematicsFiles.rbtx or NXTkinematicsFiles2.rbtx. This installs necessary myblocks (Mindstorms NXT subprograms) on your computer.

5. Open the file GenerateTextFiles.rbt or GenerateTextFiles2.rbt, then download and run it on your LEGO NXT car.

6. If you are using different wheels than I am, open, download and run CalibrateWheels.rbt on your LEGO NXT car. Follow the on-screen instructions. Feel free to measure the wheel diameter using a ruler to help you get started with the calibration.
