(...) Why would you use the analog ports for a bump sensor? Isn't that just a contact switch? Tie to a digital port pulled high with a 47K ohm resistor, and have the normally open contact tie the pin to ground when the contact switch is closed. The (...)

| | Sample bump sensor routine
|
|
I am having trouble writing a routine for my bump sensors. Evertime I write a program I can't get the analog ports to initialize. I guess this is where you would connect bump switches isn't it. I can get my bot to go forward, turn, and go backward (...) (28 years ago, 4-Feb-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

Hi everyone, i was wondering if it's possible to drive more than one infrared LED (emitter) through the handy board and IC. Has anyone tried doing before??? i want to model the wall-following behavior in my car, by using emitter-detector pairs on (...) (28 years ago, 3-Feb-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

Ed, Yes, I got round the problem by using the Newton labs IC 3.1 Beta, which does all the downloading itself. After a couple of tries, it told me that it had reset the config register. I never managed to change it with hbdl, and now I only use IC (...) (28 years ago, 3-Feb-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

(...) In regular C, you just ask for what you want by declaring the convert in a statement like... Knob_value = knob(); How_much = float(knob_value); servo_deg(How_much); or save a variable with... Knob_value = knob; servo_deg(float(Knob_value)); (...) (28 years ago, 2-Feb-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

Duh- sorry I just realized that you just typecase the variable however you want it to be. Anyway- visit my hardware hacks page for a laugh if you have time. -Ira (28 years ago, 1-Feb-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

| | Hi folks a question about ic.

Hi, is there some kind of integer to float call in ic? I am trying to write a test servo routine that takes the knob() value and turns the servo to that number of degrees using servo_deg() which takes a float. Any ideas? My board was just recenly (...)

Hi- I'd like to separate my display from my handyboard and wire it via ribbon wire so I can view it remotely. Can I do this? How far away can I have the display from the board until it is unable to fully transmit a signal? Thanks, Mike Degon (28 years ago, 31-Jan-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
