  • Run This. Any command you type into this line is triggered when you press the white “Run” button on the Cricket. The Virtual Cricket can be triggered by clicking on its white button (in the lower right corner of the Cricket).

  • Monitor Box. The Cricket can send information back to your computer using the send command. Anything the Cricket sends is displayed in the Monitor Box.

  • Download Button. When you click the Download button, all of your Procedures and the contents of the Run This line are downloaded into the Cricket. You can then run your programs by pressing the Cricket's Run button.
