Creating Multiple Flowcharts
The K’NEX Robotics software allows you to quickly and easily develop multi-tasking
(or multi-thread) programs. Traditionally this is a very complex programming task but
the software offers this programming method in a very simple and easy to use style.
Up to a maximum of 16 flowcharts can be used in a control program!
To create separate flowcharts that will operate simultaneously:
1. Build your first flowchart using symbols as normal.
2. Start a second flowchart by clicking on the Start icon from the toolbar.
The first flowchart will disappear from view and a new Start symbol will
automatically be placed in a blank edit area.
3. Build the second flowchart just like the first, using symbols, procedures, etc.
4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 for each additional flowchart.
NOTE: Use the flowchart selector toolbar or the map tab from the information panel to toggle
between flowcharts and procedures. Be sure to enter a name in each start to identify them.
