  (Some) HiTechnic Sensors to be Produced Once Again?
 
Looks like it to me. (URL) know more? Max (22 years ago, 27-Dec-03, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.technic)
 
  Re: Pneumatic valve mystery
 
(...) What about tighten the things a bit more with: int pos = whichPosition; valveMotor.forward(); while( pos != 1 ) { pos = whichPosition; } valveMotor.stop(); LCD.showNumber( pos ); This should be the fastest loop I can think of in terms of (...) (22 years ago, 26-Dec-03, to lugnet.robotics)
 
  Re: Pneumatic valve mystery
 
Alex, Many thanks! Your improved code has been chugging along nicely; probably 100 cycles with no mysteries! Walt White (22 years ago, 26-Dec-03, to lugnet.robotics)
 
  Re: Pneumatic valve mystery
 
(...) I suspect you're having problems with indeterminate values in the whichPosition variable. This might happen due to the SensorListener getting called in the middle of one of the tests for your while loops... or it might have some other cause. (...)

(...) touch (...) to? (...) not (...) Kevin, Thanks for the reply. As you might guess, I am also a novice at posting and replying to a "list." Took two trys to get it posted! I do get the touch sensor pressed every time the drum passes it. I can see (...) (22 years ago, 26-Dec-03, to lugnet.robotics)
 
  Re: Pneumatic valve mystery
 
(...) When you say it "misses a command", do you mean that you don't get the touch sensor pressed once in a while? Or the motor doesn't turn when you want it to? If it is the touch sensor issue, maybe the round brick+boat plate that are not close (...) (22 years ago, 26-Dec-03, to lugnet.robotics)
 
  Pneumatic valve mystery
 
I am a novice robot builder and programmer who needs some help with a random problem that affects a pneumatic system I have built. I want a general purpose basic pneumatic system that can be programmed to use any of the three positions of the (...) (22 years ago, 26-Dec-03, to lugnet.robotics)

  Re: Lightsensor
 
If I shine a bright light into the light sensor it gets to 60 sometimes, but if I put the light sensor very close to a lamp, it gets to 100. I could never get a value lower than 25. "Michael Gasperi" <gasperi@alynk.com> wrote in the message (...) (22 years ago, 25-Dec-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  Pseudo Proportional Control Re: RC Nitro Flash and RCX
 
(...) Philo, All I believe that if we can control the rate at which we send commands to a Nitro Flash a simple pseudo proportional control can be implemented. Has anyone tried it? All the best and Happy Holidays -Andrea (22 years ago, 24-Dec-03, to lugnet.robotics)
