  Where is the Firmware?
 
Hi. I have both mindstorms and robolab. Where is the firmware located? (i.e., what is the firmware file called?) I would especially like to know this for robolab as I have a robolab site license. Barbara Nostrand +---...---+ | Barbara Nostrand, (...) (25 years ago, 22-Dec-99, to lugnet.robotics)
 
  Re: Panaka is yellow?
 
(...) I really think that what you have written hear gets to the root of the problem. For one I agree with you that it would be nice to get some sort of offical stance from LEGO regarding the issue but beyond that I think there are some very (...) (25 years ago, 22-Dec-99, to lugnet.starwars)
 
  A Motor as a Sensor? An idea
 
Hi, yesterday i played around with the View Button and with different Sensors. And than I pluged a Motor (in this case a generator) to the Sensor input. If the motor was not turned, the Sensor Reading was '4'. If turned (forward) the reading (...) (25 years ago, 22-Dec-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

  S@H Canada not so Lucky
 
Mark, I'm not sure when you ordered your upgrade, but here's my experience. I called the Canadaian S@H number today, Wed Dec 22, and got the typical voice mail choices. I then chose the English option for S@H and was connected with a friendly (...) (25 years ago, 22-Dec-99, to lugnet.robotics)

  Re: How old are you?
 
(...) Well, since you ask, 52. I'd never used LEGO before getting a Mindstorms kit, although I'd dabbled slightly in robotics before using the Erector/Meccano system. I got this after realizing that there was a strong web community and thus wide- (...) (25 years ago, 22-Dec-99, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) Thanks Indranil, that is the window! Too bad TLG doesn't make these window styles, or at least some better variations that actually look like real windows.

  Re: FIber-optic rotation sensor
 
It was not me to discover it, but it's definitely doable. You can use the fiber-optic device as a rotation sensor and it works pretty well. As Dennis and Phil said, the only point is that you cannot detect the direction, but in many cases you (...) (25 years ago, 22-Dec-99, to lugnet.robotics)

Dave, (...) I think that the Flash Speeder minifig is not Panaka.
