  Blue screen of death
 
So, it took me a while, and I THINK, I MIGHT have solved the stupid rcx crash thing. My code has a wait until command. it is peppered throughout the code and it is a simple way for me to wait until BOTH the X and the Y are in position before i do a (...)

(...) There's a reason why it's inaccurate at slow speed, and a fix (requires taking apart the sensor and some soldering!) here (URL) (23 years ago, 13-Feb-02, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

(...) increase. (...) That is the biggest problem I have. Even with my anti-external light shell (see here: (URL) I still need to adjust the value between day time and night time testing. (23 years ago, 13-Feb-02, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
 
  Re: Robot – Accuracy
 
(...) And what do you think keeps your code alive when you turn the RCX off? As for a stack problem, this would only happen when the RCX is executing your code. Whenever you download a program the memory is autmatically cleared. The stack idea is (...) (23 years ago, 13-Feb-02, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
 
  Re: Robot Accuracy
 
So I have revamped Runamok 'Bot with 40 tooth gears for a great speed increase. And the rotation sensors are still accurate at this increased speed. Now, however, the light sensor misses--could be the codeing or the light conditions in my room--so (...) (23 years ago, 13-Feb-02, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
 
  Re: We're going to lose our position...
 
(...) So last night, I sat down in front of the mountain of lego... that will take me a good week to resort... I looked at my tri-griper EOAT that I got to grip and run up a 1 x 16 rack... not in the right order of course.... and I decided to start (...)

(...) this is my plan. I want to SLOW the entire thing down, and start to display data on the LCD. Bruce suggested to me that maybe some "stack" is not mis behaving. So a question to the Group. if a v 1.0 RCX that is always powered by an official (...) (23 years ago, 13-Feb-02, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
 
  Re: 2002 FBTB comments
 
Hey Calum, 2002 and we've cut our expectations back to basic tubs. Hmm, not much of a stretch from here to the belching smokestacks and mega-urban wasteland of Bladerunner. :P I know what you mean about the sets, but I'm finding that I'm getting (...)

To (mis)quote the IBM commercial: "That's when it hits you: You are so beat by Bruce." :) If it makes you feel better, I have disassembled pretty well all of the xEmployees entry to increase sensor resolution, gearing ratios, EOAT speeds and a (...)
