Loading, Changing Controller Parameters
The first set of tabs allows you to view and change the controller’s parameters. These tabs
are grouped according to the general type of parameters (Controls, Power Setting, and R/C
Settings).
When starting Roborun, this screen is filled with the default values. If the controller is con-
nected to your PC, Roborun will automatically detect it and ask you if you wish to read its
settings.
The controller’s setting in the PC at can be read any other time by pressing the “Load from
Controller” button. After changing a parameter, you must save it to the controller manually
by pressing the “Save to Controller” button.
