the remote control tool
The LEGO MINDSTORMS NXT 2.0 retail kit includes a remote control tool that lets you directly drive your robot from the MINDSTORMS software. Selecting the Tools ▸ Remote Control menu item opens the Remote Control window (shown in Figure 4-46). The four arrow buttons let you move your robot forward or backward and turn to the left or right, and the Action button controls the third motor (if your robot uses three motors). See the help file for a complete description of this handy little tool.
