How to rename the VEX Cortex

Fun Fact: The most common causes of an unnamed cortex are firmware updates and mysterious supernatural forces.

  1. Click the "Robot" button from the top of the window.
  2. Select the "Advanced Tools" option from the menu.
  3. Click the "Rename Robot" option from the menu.
  4. If the cortex is unnamed, the box under "Current Robot Name" should be blank. If not, consider hitting the "Cancel" button
  5. UCC's team number has been (9651) for at least three years so it will probably be the same. Type "9651" into the box and then the robot's name (This is usually something like "UCC1" or "BOT1"). Though preferred for their ability to convey a sense of excitement and urgency, capitol letters are not necessary in the naming process. (Spaces are also optional)
  6. Clicking the "Rename Robot" button should cause the robot to budge forward (Assuming you have motors plugged in and code uploaded)
  7. Assuming all steps have been followed correctly; you have just renamed your competition robot!
