(...) I 've done just that, but the problem I describe persists: When the TachoSpeed reported by watching the brick is around 57, the brick doesn't do anything if the response value is set to 62. It does at 66 or 67 but that also makes it impossible (...) (19 years ago, 12-Mar-07, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) The problem is almost certainly that your program only runs for about 2 tenths of a second. If you want the program to run forward continuously and execute a special behavior if at some point during the execution of the program the TachoSpeed (...)

I also figured out what COM3 was: the internal modem. I disabled it in Device Manager and now the only port that I can find in my C# app or in Hyperterminal is COM1, the serial port. But the IR tower is still not working. By the way, the built-in IR (...) (19 years ago, 10-Mar-07, to lugnet.robotics.rcx, FTX)

Really nice! I recently built the original bug from the descriptions in the "10 Cool Lego Mindstorms RIS 2 Projects' book but the program files that come with it are all lsc files. I'm having a hard enough time learning NQC to try to make sense of (...) (19 years ago, 10-Mar-07, to lugnet.robotics)

I'm trying to write a simple routine that uses the TachoSpeed value to see if my Cybermaster has run into something. I'm trying this on tiled floor, by making the bot with tank threads run into the wall, but only very occasionally does it actually (...) (19 years ago, 10-Mar-07, to lugnet.robotics)

I feel kind of dumb: the serial port was disabled in the BIOS. However, now that it is enabled and is assigned COM1 (and shows up in Device Manager under Ports), I'm still having problems: C:nqc>nqc -SCOM1 -v -d test.nqc Downloading Program:Tx: 55 (...)

The light goes on as soon as you plug in the tower? Sounds like someone is already using COM3. I was looking around DELL technical support and you may have a bit of work ahead of you. First off your serial port on the inspiron 8200 should be COM1. I (...) (19 years ago, 9-Mar-07, to lugnet.robotics.rcx, FTX)
