  Re: Multiple Motors/Synchronizing Movement
 
(...) That sounds like a sensible solution. Play well, Jacob (12 years ago, 24-Sep-12, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)
 
  Multiple Motors/Synchronizing Movement
 
Hi all, I'm only just now making the transition from RCX to NXT. The power of the new servos is really something. For years I've "hard-coded" my own servo code to couple a rotation sensor to a gearmotor to do setpoint-based positioning for (...) (12 years ago, 22-Sep-12, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)
 
  Read Direct Command Value
 
Hi I'm trying to read direct command sent to NXT via Bluetooth (i.e. via SetOutputState) in a NXC program. the goal is to remote control an NXT robot with a mobile phone, having the program direct access to the data sent to the robot. i.e. I want to (...)

  Re: Bluetooth: Limited to 5?
 
(...) ...I meant "you can have only 4 NXT" !!! Philo (13 years ago, 8-Sep-11, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)
 
  Re: Bluetooth: Limited to 5?
 
(...) As far as I know the only limit is that you 4 have only 4 NXT connected together at one time, one master and three slaves. This explains why the Monster Chess that contains at least 32 NXT must constantly make and break connections. But you (...) (13 years ago, 8-Sep-11, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)
 
  Re: Bluetooth: Limited to 5?
 
(...) Class is over and I'm still wondering why we could not fire up more than 5 bluetooth connections. Actually, these were NXT to NXT connections. The RaceCar project at nxtprograms.com served as the basis for the RC Bluetooth connections. We (...) (13 years ago, 19-Aug-11, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)
 
  Re: Bluetooth: Limited to 5?
 
(...) I don't know what the numeric limit is, but there is a limit of some sort, as I heard that Monster Chess ran into it and the central computer has to continually set up and tear down connections to the 32 different pieces, it cannot be in (...)

  Bluetooth: Limited to 5?
 
I have a class of 10 kids each trying to fire up a remote control via bluetooth to their respective robots. Seems there is a limit of 5 connections to a room? Can anyone confirm? (13 years ago, 19-Aug-11, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)
 
  NXT-G and random number usage
 
OK, so I'm on my second ever NXT project, and I am wondering if this is even possible. I have a program that currently has 3 WAIT Blocks, each set to different lengths of time (4 sec, 2 sec, 1 sec) at different points. What I want to do, to add more (...)

  NXT 1.0 models in NXT 2.0?
 
I have both 1.0 and 2.0 NXT sets, and I'd like to have all of the models from both versions of the software to appear. I thought I could install both and I'd get both sets of models, but I can't install the 1.0 software- it tells me that I need at (...) (13 years ago, 19-Nov-10, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)

  Re: Text languages for programming NXT?
 
(...) Last year I tried using RobotC on an RCX, and found it to be buggy and no longer maintained. It worked very well on the NXT, but I was looking for something affordable that I could use in a classroom environment, and that made it easy to (...)

  Re: Text languages for programming NXT?
 
I'm getting back into Mindstorms after a long hiatus. Let me resurrect this old thread, to see what the answer is in 2010. :-) What text-based languages are most mature and best-supported these days for programming RCX and NXT? Is RobotC still (...)

  Re: NXT Newbie "Is it possible" question
 
(...) I'm not sure how much time you have, or what resources... but you might be able to do this with a single set. If you put an arm on each motor, such that "track A" would hit a peg and turn the motor clockwise, but "Track B" would hit a peg on (...) (14 years ago, 24-Aug-10, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)
 
  Re: NXT Newbie "Is it possible" question
 
(...) Well, just for diversity here's a slightly different approach. Make the first block a "Reset Timer" block, then split the program into four sequences. Each is simply a "Wait for Touch Sensor", followed by "Read Timer" block with the result (...) (14 years ago, 24-Aug-10, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)
 
  Re: NXT Newbie "Is it possible" question
 
Thanks Kevin! That gives me a good start. once I get some sort of working model, I'll share with world for some good old fashion criticism. Chris (14 years ago, 19-Aug-10, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)
 
  Re: How is this?
 
(...) Yes, change the "wait for 9" to be a "check for 9", and the problem should go away... Loop forever if Touched and distance < 9 { turn on motor } else { turn off motor } Kevin (14 years ago, 19-Aug-10, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)
 
  Re: NXT Newbie "Is it possible" question
 
(...) Chris, Sure it is, as long as the NXT cables are long enough to place the sensors where you want on the track. As you already figured out, the tricky bits are in the software. Here is pseudocode for what I would do were I to program it in G (...) (14 years ago, 19-Aug-10, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)
 
  NXT Newbie "Is it possible" question
 
I am hoping to build a race timer mechanism using my NXT and 4 touch sensors. Essentially I need it to be similar to a pinewood derby timer. I am holding a LEGO car race for our homeschool group, and would love to be able to do all of the timing (...) (14 years ago, 18-Aug-10, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)
