How do you charge a VEX controller?
To charge the Controller, plug the USB Cable (Micro USB Type B) into the Charge port on the Controller, and a USB port on a computer. If you are unable to charge in this way, then connect the Controller via Tether Cable to a Robot Brain that has a charged Battery. Turn on the Robot Brain and the charging will begin.

What is a VEX IQ brain?
The VEX IQ Robot Brain is a revolution in robot control systems. (12) identical Smart ports – connect any device to any port. Backlit LCD for simple operation. Built in programs make robot building fast and fun. Programmable with VEXcode Blocks.
What is a VEX Cortex?
The VEX Cortex Microcontroller coordinates the flow of all information and power on the robot. It has built in bi-directional communication for wireless driving, debugging and downloading using the state of the art VEXnet 802.11 wireless link. The Microcontroller is the brain of every VEX robot.
What is Vex V5?
VEX V5 represents our fifth generation of education robotics systems developed with 20 years of experience using robotics to teach STEM principles. VEX allows students to hone critical computational thinking skills needed to succeed in both the 21st century’s workforce and in everyday life.
How do you charge a VEX V5 brain?
Plug the battery into a power source. The V5 Robot Battery can be charged by first plugging pronged end of the V5 Robot Battery Charger into a power supply socket. Then insert the rounded part of the charger into the battery’s round charging port at its base.
Is RobotC C or C++?
No, RobotC is not standard ANSI C. It is a hybrid between C and C++ with a lot of standard features missing. To name a few, it doesn’t allow a function to be re-enter, so no recursion and it doesn’t support pointers either.
What language is vex?
VEX is loosely based on the C language, but takes ideas from C++ as well as the RenderMan shading language. VEX is used in several places in Houdini: Rendering – mantra uses VEX for all shading computation. This includes light, surface, displacement and fog shaders.
How do you take the battery out of a VEX IQ?
Remove the Robot Battery Squeeze the latch at the end of the Robot Battery and pull it out of the Brain. NOTE: Pushing on the Robot Battery from the other end helps in removing it. NOTE: The Robot Battery should always be removed from the Brain if it is going to be stored for longer than two weeks.
