Power them up by holding down on/off button for 2 seconds. Select VCR on amp to receive the audio from that cable.  +  +Don't worry about the tape and Y-adapter on the top of the transmitter.

'''Introduction:'''

This section of the Wiki contains good information on code documentation, coding standards and basic software project best practices.

'Why?', you may ask, '...would I want to document my code ?'. The single best answer is so you can share it. The whole of the OSS (Open Source Software) movement, and the software industry in general, is founded on sharing code and code reuse. Having proper documentation and coding style is essential for these systems to function.

If something is worth coding in the first place, it is worth sharing with others. Do you part ! Document and organize your code !


'''Sub Topics:'''

*[[Workshops/CodeDoc/Style|Coding Style and Standards]]
*[[Workshops/CodeDoc/Tools|Documentation Tools (Doxygen)]]
