You Reply: Hello Leff,
Thank you very much for following up. I bought the set of two, and planning on showcasing it at our conference superiortech4teachers.com
However, if this is not resolved, I will not be able to use Vortex at the conference because teachers and students will not be able to program the bots. I really hope that they will figure out what's wrong, I would hate to return the product instead of keeping it and promoting it to so many people here at the conference. I have tried several educational robots, and this is one of the most refilned ones. However, if students cannot program it, then it is just a toy and I cannot recommend it - Nik

You Reply: Hello again,
The PDF you provided is the same as the instruction that come with Vortex. However, the app does not allow me to set the Duration. I can select the different conditions and Actions, but when I select an action, the app does not give me the option to set the duration, therefore, whatever I select, it happens for ever. Please advise. If the app is not able to program the robot the way it is advertised and outlined in the manual I will have to return it, because programing is not possible. Please help!

You Reply: Hello Jeff,
Thank you so much for your help! You were right, I was able to restore Vortex it its original settings as soon as I connected it to the Vortexbot app. Nice Job on that, I literally had to only do two taps!
However, I would be grateful if you could elaborate a bit more on the second issue I talked to you about in my previous inquiry. I am trying to write a simple program where, when Vortex runs onto an obstacle, it will stop, go back a foot or two and then turn into a different direction. Are you able to provide any help on that?
Thank you in advance, -Nik

You Reply: I just bought Vortex and trying to program it in WhenDo. Aside from not finding the "reset to Factory Settings" module, I also have an additional problem: in the manual, the "example programs" show a "speed" and "duration" for Vortex Motor actions. WhenDo does not give the duration option. I can change the "speed" and "delay", but there is no "duration" option. As a result, whatever I ask the motor to do, it does it for ever! Please help. - Nik
