Having to trouble shoot a Dell Inspiron 1100 not booting up cleanly. An alarm goes off and it goes to safe boot mode. I am running the original Home version of XP without updates and RoboLab 2.94. Keeping the 2007 working original program until new (...) (7 years ago, 15-Mar-17, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

Here is the twenty foot long process on the main RCX for the printer. https://www.dropbox....X.jpg?dl=0 I wanted to use sub routines and loop the process so the program could look elegant but never got it to work. Here each color has it's own put (...) (7 years ago, 20-Feb-17, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

(...) D'oh... I'm posting this because I'm sure I'm not the only one who missed this: I didn't realize there's a drop-down when BricxCC starts up, to select "Swan" instead of "RCX" when making the first handshake with the brick. After doing that, it (...) (12 years ago, 19-Jul-12, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

(...) (snip) (...) BrixCC doesn't recognize "wait1Msec", and when I try to download a program with it, it just gives me an error. That's kind of what I was getting at with the motor power stuff; I can tell the RCX can handle more motor powers, but (...) (12 years ago, 18-Jul-12, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

(...) Thanks for the link! (...) The documentation on this page (URL) mentions the following: "new wait1Msec opcode to perform program waits using one millisecond resolution" Maybe that is what you are looking for. (12 years ago, 18-Jul-12, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

Hi all, One of the common ways I like to control the speed of a gearmotor (in NQC) is by introducing a loop, for example, like this: while(true) { OnFwd(motor); Wait(a); Off(motor); Wait(b); } I often do this as a motor approaches a setpoint (say an (...)
