  Help with NXT-G programming.
 
Hello, I got my Mindstorm NXT set a few weeks ago. Have built and programmed all the modells that was in the program that came with the set. And now started to make my own robots with the NXT. The NXT-G program looks great and is easy to understand (...) (20 years ago, 2-Oct-06, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)
 
  RE: Tacho Limit and Braking
 
If you want to try something a little different, use RobotC to do this. There are several advantages to this: * It can be done with one "setout" opcode. * The RobotC PID algorithm for this type of movement is different than the NXT-G (...) (20 years ago, 2-Oct-06, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)
 
  Re: Tacho Limit and Braking
 
(...) The NXT firmware does not support a single operation which has the motor run to a specific tachometer limit and then brake. The only way to do what you would like to do involves several operations. But you can wrap it all up into a reusable (...) (20 years ago, 2-Oct-06, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)
 
  Tacho Limit and Braking
 
I started playing with NBC, and wanted to run the motor until it hits the tachometer limit, and then brake. I have been unable to make this happend with one setout opcode. Is it possible? Is it possible to make the opcode wait until the tacho limit (...) (20 years ago, 1-Oct-06, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)
 
  Re: bluetooth and nxt
 
Thanks for your responses! I am pleased that I experienced a surprisingly painless and successful connection between my NXT and the Belkin Bluetooth USB Adapter F8T012 (which I bought today). I'm even happier that I can compile and d/l my programs (...) (20 years ago, 30-Sep-06, to lugnet.robotics)

  Re: NXT Bluetooth on Intel Based Macs
 
(...) I haven't tried it using windows on an intel mac (I have a MacBookPro) and I haven't tried robotc, however I am able to communicate with the NXT in OSX on an intel mac, using bluetooth serial ports and ruby. For more info see: (URL) (20 years ago, 29-Sep-06, to lugnet.robotics)
 
  Re: bluetooth and nxt
 
(...) Yes, that is correct. (...) The users Manual says, You can use it like a Remote Control (...) No. You can use one Bluetooth-Dongle for connecting to several other Devices. (...) No again. (...) Yes, one NXT can connect to 3 others. (20 years ago, 28-Sep-06, to lugnet.robotics)
 
  bluetooth and nxt
 
I assume most the bluetooth discussion (i.e, the compatibility lists) have been for a bluetooth adapter (?) you install on your computer to communicate with the nxt. Is that correct? What about using a cell phone that is blue tooth ready? What does (...) (20 years ago, 28-Sep-06, to lugnet.robotics)

  Re: NXT compatible bluetooth adapters
 
(...) Uninstalling the provided driver and then reinstalling using the XP-driver made it work with the NXT. Thanks! Thomas (20 years ago, 26-Sep-06, to lugnet.robotics)
 
  RE: NXT compatible bluetooth adapters
 
I've updated the compatibility list at (URL) reflect this update. It APPEARS that as a rule, one should try using the native XP drivers first, and only install the vendor-provided drivers if necessary. Some of those vendor drivers may not uninstall (...)

  Re: NXT compatible bluetooth adapters
 
(...) I had a similar problem. After uninstalling the software that came with the Bluetooth-Stick WinXP detected the Stick again and used its own driver. Now it works. I have a Lutec BTA-6030 and since I use the WinXP-Driver it works quite well. (...) (20 years ago, 25-Sep-06, to lugnet.robotics)

  Re: NXT compatible bluetooth adapters
 
(...) I'm not able to make it work. Have EPoX BT-DG02 and XP SP2. If I scan with the NXT-sw, nothing is detected. If I try to do a manual connection from the NXT, it discovers the PC, but after saying "Connecting" it says "Line is Busy". Any (...) (20 years ago, 23-Sep-06, to lugnet.robotics)

  Re: Example of two-way NXT-to-PC communication
 
During development, it was discovered that the BlueTooth chip apparently has about a 60ms latency when changing directions.
