(...) Actually, you want it to be unpowered instead of powered; giving the sensor power will just waste your batteries heating up the resistors. Setting it up as SENSOR_TYPE_NONE and SENSOR_MODE_PERCENT (or SENSOR_MODE_RAW) under NQC would be much (...) (23 years ago, 25-Mar-02, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) Well the polarity switch can be made to work as a "switcher" that can be used to can input source or output source by wiring it like Hao-yang Wang did in this example: (URL) works great like this, I use it with my RailRacers ((URL) control (...)

(...) But... be aware that the 'polarity switch' has only two connectors (for two sets of wires). It's not a '3-way' where you can try to select one of two inputs by moving the lever. The action is forward-off-reverse with one power source connected (...) (23 years ago, 25-Mar-02, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.robotics.rcx)

| | Another LegOS Feature - Combo Sensor
|
|
With the latest surge of interest in updating LegOS, I’d like to offer an idea that I think would be nice to add. A few months ago, someone posted some sensor code that allowed a light sensor and a rotation sensor to be connected to the same port. (...) (23 years ago, 25-Mar-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

I have been working on some changes to the task scheduler (and therefore execi, kill, killall) and have reduced the size/complexity a bit. I think it is ready for use (although I am going to continue to test it). Here is a bit of info. about it: (...) (23 years ago, 25-Mar-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
