| | How to get interval of time
|
|
In NQC, I can use ClearTimer(0) and Timer(0) to get interval of time, how can I do it in legOS? I used t1 = sys_time, then t2 = sys_time, so interval = t2 - t1, is it correct? Zhengrong (24 years ago, 18-Dec-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

hi All, Inspired by some applications of the 16F84 PIC, we came up with the idea to make a IR-module, which is capable of doing all the InfraRed tasks we could imagine with the RCX. Well it hasn't come so far, but we have build a RCX IR-remote (...) (24 years ago, 17-Dec-01, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.robotics.rcx, lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
