Programs

The Programs section lets you run and calibrate robot programs directly from the touchscreen.

From the dashboard, tap the Programs tile.

You will see a list of all programs (projects) available on the robot.

  3. The execution screen opens showing the program’s output in real time

To stop a running program before it finishes, tap the Stop button.

Calibrating from the Screen

Some programs support a calibration mode. If the calibration option appears:

  1. Tap the program
  2. Tap Calibrate instead of Run
  3. The calibration interface appears — follow any on-screen instructions

This is equivalent to running raccoon calibrate from the command line.

Program Output

While a program runs, its output (print statements and log messages) is shown in a scrollable log on the screen. After the program finishes, the log stays visible until you navigate away.

Uploading Programs

Programs are uploaded from your laptop using raccoon sync or raccoon run. You cannot create or edit programs from the touchscreen — editing always happens on your laptop and changes are pushed to the robot via raccoon.
