STEP 1: Power up MOSS and snap on your action and sense blocks to the data faces of your Bluetooth-enabled MOSS Brain. Tap the Bluetooth icon in MOSS Dashboard to find your Brain and connect to it.

STEP 2: Choose your Dashboard:

*** Drivetronix *** With a gamepad style buttons for powering your motors, a slider for steering, a toggle button for headlights, and a speedometer, the Drivetronix dashboard is perfect for driving car-like MOSS robots.

*** Zippydiff *** Connect your left and right motor to the Joystick on the Zippydiff to zip around in your differential drive styled robot! Use the slider for lights, or angle action.

*** Duallux *** Another great dashboard for puck robots with two motors. Use the left and right sliders to power your motors, and connect a sensor to the numeric slider to help you navigate exotic environments like the Undercouch or dwarven desk caves.

*** Gutsygus *** Have lots of action blocks that need fine tuned controls? Gutsygus features three sliders, as well as a numeric display for your sensor.

*** The Leveler *** Use your device's motion capabilities to steer your robot! Tilt your phone forward or sideways to gracefully glide across the room.

STEP 3: Assign dashboard controls to the numbered faces on your MOSS Brain by tapping the octagonal face icon.

Have motors on face 2 and 3? Assign both faces to the joystick to power the left and right motors. Is your angle block on face 5? Assign it to the slider. If you want to see the value of a sensor like a proximity or brightness block, assign it to a numeric display or a speedometer.
