2 Reading data from the line follower:
Reprogramming your microcontroller to read the sensor
Start by plugging your line follower into any port in the Analog/Digital
bank on the Vex Microcontroller. Note that the connector is mechanically
keyed to fit into the microcontroller ports in a specific orientation.
Plugging it in backwards could result in damage to your sensor!
In order for your robot to be able to read the sensor, you will have to
reprogram the microcontroller. Sample code to help you get started is
available on the Vex website. Refer to the Programming chapter in your
Vex Inventor’s Guide for information on how to add or change code.
