Put RECON 6.0 on the floor, making sure
that there is at least 3 feet of space in front
of it. Press ENTER. Your Rover should drive
forward 3 feet and stop.
QUALITY CONTROL
The scientists at SmartLab want to make
sure your RECON 6.0 is functioning
properly. To help them out, run this QA
test (that’s short for quality assurance
in programmer-speak).
RECON 6.0 was built with fun and function
in mind, but remember it is a toy. It should
properly perform this book’s missions—
and ones you think up yourself—but may
not always be exact.
Follow these steps on the same type of
floor (wood, tile, or carpet) that you will be
using your Rover on. If you move to a new
type of floor and find that your Rover isn’t
working quite right, rerun these steps.
