OK all of you IC gurus. How come I can't do this: int m() { int *address; address=&a0; address++; } a0 is a variable defined in an .icb file. I also can't do something like address=address+2; or address[4]=7; Why not? This is all pretty standard C (...) (29 years ago, 8-Feb-96, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

OK, OK. RTFM, I know. I looked at the on-line manual, and now realize that IC arrays are different than normal C arrays, and so you can't do stuff like int m() { int *address; address=&a0; address++; } But then the question still remains, how can I (...)

Therefore I do not get direction from the current software. Maybe (...) (29 years ago, 11-Feb-96, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

I'm currently trying to get 6V out of my 9.6V battery pack. (I actually looked around for a 6V one, but couldn't find one that would work...) I've opened up the pack, and can access the cell where I can get 6V. However, I'm not sure how to get a (...) (29 years ago, 11-Feb-96, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

 | | charger board problems

I've managed to stick a wire onto a point in my battery pack which yields 6V. (temporary solution, at least...) However, the charger board doesn't seem to like this new arrangement much. With the lower battery voltage, too much current is flowing (...) (29 years ago, 11-Feb-96, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

You could just get an adapter that is rated for a lower voltage. Try a nine volt adapter or a universal one that you can experiment with. -Fred -- This message was composed using Articulate Systems' PowerSecretary. Please forgive any sloppiness in (...)
