Hi, I saw a posting on lugnet from a year ago that you were working on an H8 emulator. Are you still working on it? I need an emulator for the processor for a class I'm teaching... Any info would be great! Thanks, Jason (22 years ago, 11-Dec-03, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) I haven't dabbled with Mindstorms for a while, but I had pretty good luck using the IR on the RCX in combination with a light sensor. Basically, have the RCX continously send out an IR message. The light sensor can detect the IR light when it (...) (22 years ago, 11-Dec-03, to lugnet.robotics)

Steve, Thanks for the info! I've placed an order for the US sensor (well, a pre-order, as they say they'll be shipping orders out only around Jan.2004). They are a little expensive though, I must say. Is this sensor easy to control when programming (...) (22 years ago, 11-Dec-03, to lugnet.robotics)

Understood. In this case, I am thinking that the option should be ON by default; such that a new, less experienced user would not encounter a problem; but an experienced user could turn the option off. // Joe (...) (22 years ago, 11-Dec-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

(...) But, it perhaps should default to being enabled as this deficiency has caused some confusion in the past. Great work, Joe! Mark (22 years ago, 11-Dec-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

(...) I opt for option. Not much may be to much in some cases. And I don't want to program in c++ anyway. Regards, Michael (22 years ago, 11-Dec-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

(...) [snipped] (...) I simply added ctor_size and dtor_size to the *image*, *lx* and *program* structures. This allows the program manager to calc the start and end of these segments. (...) It wasn't as hard as I had thought. I have the fix (...) (22 years ago, 11-Dec-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
