Brick Apps
The EV3 Brick comes with five brick applications preinstalled and
ready to use. In addition, you can also make your own apps in the
EV3 Software. Once downloaded to the EV3 Brick, the homemade
apps will be displayed here.
The five preinstalled apps are the following:
PORT VIEW
On the first screen in the Port View, you will see, at a glance, which
ports have sensors or motors attached. Use the EV3 Brick Buttons
to navigate to one of the occupied ports and you will see the current
readings returned from the sensor or motor. Attach some sensors
and motors and experiment with the different settings. Press the
Centre button to see or change the current settings for the attached
motors and sensors. Press the Back button to get back to the Brick
Apps main screen.
MOTOR CONTROL
Control the forward and reverse movement of any motor connected
to one of the four output ports. There are two different modes. In
one mode, you will be able to control motors connected to Port A
(using the Up and Down buttons) and to Port D (using the Left and
Right buttons). In the other mode, it is motors connected to Port B
(using the Up and Down buttons) and Port C (using the Left and
Right buttons) that you control. Use the Centre button to toggle
between the two modes. Press the Back button to get back to the
Brick Apps main screen.
