 | | IC for Win 95
|
| Has anyone heard of a release date for a new version of IC for Win 95? The bugs in the present beta are getting... irritating. Maybe I should write a $100 check to Newton Labs and see what happens, eh? :-) (29 years ago, 17-May-96, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

|
| Today, IC 3.1 has decided it no longer wants to communicate with my handy board. It detects the board, I select the Handy Board .icd file, and then it tries to download the default files to the board. However, it errors out on each retry, and gets (...)

|
| Also, IC ctually _works_ if I'm downloading something with my internal modem. This is probably slowing down the transfers IC is making enough for them to work. Once the download stops, however, IC quits working again. Truly strange. (29 years ago, 18-May-96, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
| |  | | IC problems, part III!
|
| Alright, one more fun fact - the old shareware version of IC works fine, running under the Win 95 MS-DOS prompt. I think that eliminates any possibility of a hardware problem, meaning it's IC 3.1 at fault! Hbdl works fine as well, under Win 95. (...) (29 years ago, 18-May-96, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

| How can I set up digital outputs from the handyboard? I would like to drive 3 or 4 LEDs on my robot. Can I make the digital ins outputs?

| Greetings! I am new to the handyboard, and am currently building my first robot. I am having a problem with docs.. I have icmanual.ps AND icmain.pdf.. The problem is that I am using an Amiga, and cannot read or decode either of these formats. Could (...) (29 years ago, 20-May-96, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

It is at (URL) I am not sure, but I would bet there is an implementation of GhostScript for Amiga. Check it out. This would let you view (...) (29 years ago, 20-May-96, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

| (...) Ghostscript for the Amiga is pretty unusable. I tried it quite a while ago, and got thoroughly sick of it. My solution was to start using my parents' Pentium. :-) (29 years ago, 20-May-96, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
