  RE: Apparent 'time-out'
 
(...) One more bit of useful information would be the version of pbForth (which you get by typing COLD) and which version of the GUI (top left of window) Also, are you using the serial or USB tower? What messages were you sending to the RCX before (...) (23 years ago, 9-May-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.pbforth)
 
  Apparent 'time-out'
 
I am using the TCL GUI provided by Ralph Hempel on a Windows 2000 machine to program the RCX 2.0 in pbForth. The upload of the firmware appears to be working just fine. I get responses back from the RCX and am able to create new functions without (...) (23 years ago, 9-May-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.pbforth)
 
  Re: New MOC: RoboArm I
 
(...) Its already gone, RoboArm II is being worked on. I didnt get video of this one but I certainly will of the next. Things I'm changing for the second, I'd really like to remove all of the pnuematics, I'm not a big fan of it yet, and I think I (...)

  Re: ___cmpsi2
 
(...) I don't find cmpsi2 in the sources of LegOS 0.2.5 (in lib/mint)! I found a _cmpsi2.o in libgcc.a (from egcs 1.1.2), but I really don't know how gcc (and ld) uses that library. The makefiles come from the LegOS tarball. According to the output, (...) (23 years ago, 9-May-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

  BimP Needs Your Help
 
BimP is considering a new "Tips and Tricks" section. Imagine, carrying the best Technic/Robotic tips on your PDA! In order to do so, I need the help of the LUGNET Community.

  ___cmpsi2
 
Using a multiplication between an int (in my case time_t) and a double number results in the following error: main.o(.text+0x72):main.c: undefined reference to `___cmpsi2' Can someone help me? I'm running egcs 1.1.2 and binutils 2.12. Eric (23 years ago, 9-May-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: New MOC: RoboArm I
 
That is a very impressive piece of engineering. I find it hard to comment on a particular part. It is all very well done. I hope you took a little video of it in action before it is dismantled. What are your hopes for the sequel? -- Bob Fay THE SHOP (...) (23 years ago, 8-May-02, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.technic, lugnet.build)
 
  Re: Powered Sensors
 
Ok, I have gotten myself confused again. 0-0.32mA represents a voltage dropbetween 0 - 3.2 volts. Therefore the voltage that the RCX "reads" on theA2D is between 5 - 1.8 volts (1023 - 368 RAW)? To get a reading of 0 (RAW)it seems as though you would (...) (23 years ago, 8-May-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: Converting a float to an integer
 
(...) float f = 1.4; int i = (int)((i >= 0) ? i + 0.5 : i - 0.5); OR if (f >= 0) i = (int)(i + 0.5); else i = (int)(i - 0.5); This is assuming you want to round to the nearest integer.

  Re: Program() always returns 0
 
I believe any data source (not just timers/sensors/variables) can be used in SetUserDisplay. The big limitation is that local variables cannot be used since the display is updated in a global context independent of the tasks. If you know of data (...)

  Re: Program() always returns 0
 
Oops. Looks like a bug in the NQC API file. I just fixed the bug in the NQC source, but it's not major enough to warrant a new release yet. In the meantime, you can add the following lines to the top of of your source file as a work-around: #undef (...) (23 years ago, 8-May-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

  Converting a float to an integer
 
Hopefully this isnt a silly question. Does anyone know how to covert a float to an integer? It doesn't appear that the function atoi exists. Michael. (23 years ago, 7-May-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

  Re: An OrthoGlide Mill
 
Thanks for your comments Rob. The crossed rubber belts are a last ditch attempt to remove the backlash from the joints. The use of friction pins caused the joints to become so stiff that the platform would not follow the action of the arms. I found (...) (23 years ago, 7-May-02, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.robotics)
