Working with Edison

Lesson 1 questions Worksheet 1. 3: 1.   If you are using version 1 of the Edison, you should change this line to: Ed.EdisonVersion = Ed.V1 2.  The Ed.PlayBeep() command has no input parameters. In the Ed.TimeWait() command there are 2 input parameters – the first for the number of seconds or milliseconds to wait, and the second parameter for the unit of time (milliseconds or seconds). The Ed.LeftLed() command takes one input which tells the left LED whether it should turn on or off The Ed.DriveRightMotor() command has 1 input parameter which tells the robot to drive right or not. 3.   if you changed the setup code from centimetres to inches, the code would look like this: Ed.DistanceUnits = Ed.INCH 4.  If errors are detected, a message will appear in the ‘Compiler Output’ window at the bottom of the screen providing details on the errors. Worksheet 1. 4:  1. when the play button is pressed, Edison spins right and left while flashing its lights and beeping. 2.  The co
