Programming
33
• If you enter Stop into a sequence the robot will pause for about 3
seconds during program playback.
• You cannot enter the following commands in a program: Sleep,
Power Down, Sonic or Vision on/off, Robot Interaction, Gait
Change, Free-Roam or Manual Color Settings.
• Main Program Mode has a maximum of 20 moves.
• When you enter the program mode the previously stored program
will still be in the memory, even if you have powered
Robosapien™V2 Off and On.
• If the memory is full you will be told as soon as you enter the
mode.
If you want to clear the whole program press + +
If you want to clear just the last entry press + +
EXIT PROgRAMMINg
To exit program mode, Press + + . Robosapien™V2
will play back the program if stored.
SUBROUTINES
You can join subroutine programs into the main program mode to
increase the length of your stored program as follows:
SOUND SUBROUTINE:
+
+
VISION SUBROUTINE:
+
+
POSITIONAL SUBROUTINE:
• If you add a sound or vision subroutine but there is nothing in the
sound or vision program memory, then the robot will wait about
90 seconds for a sharp sound or a close IR trigger before
continuing with the rest of the program.
• If there is something in the sound or vision memory then the robot
will automatically perform the moves from the subroutine without
waiting.
• You can make Robosapien™V2 enter Guard Mode as part of the
Main Program.

C
• He will wait about 90 seconds for a sharp sound or close IR
trigger before continuing with the rest of the program.
• If he gets a sound or vision trigger during this time he will
perform the relevant subroutine before continuing.
SONIC AND VISION PROgRAM MODES
You can assign a sequence of moves that are triggered by a sharp
sound (Sound Program) or a close IR movement (Vision Program)
when Robosapien™V2 is in Guard Mode (p. 35).
Enter Sound Program mode by pressing: + +
Enter Vision Program mode by pressing: + +
• Sound and Vision Program Modes have a maximum of 20 moves
each.
• You can program moves in exactly the same way as for Main
Program Mode.
• You can enter the Main Positional Program subroutine into Sound
or Vision programs, but you cannot enter Sound or Vision
subroutines, or enter Guard Mode as part of a Sound or Vision
Program.
• When Robosapien™V2 is performing programs he will not use his
Infrared Vision or touch sensors to avoid obstacles.
