My latest tests indicate that SensorType() does not exist with CyberMaster.
I think the main function of SensorType() is to switch external power on/off depending the sensor type. Since this function seems to not exist, it is not possible give power to sensors in CyberMaster.

Also using NQCC 1.0B2 constants and functions, I came to following conclusions:
Sensor() responds to these types of data:
STYPE_SWITCH
STYPE_TEMP
STYPE_LIGHT
But do not respond to STYPE_ANGLE.
-
Also, SensorMode() seems to acknowledge the following constants:
SMODE_RAW
SMODE_BOOL
SMODE_EDGE
SMODE_PULSE
SMODE_PERCENT
And don't seem to respond to the following ones:
SMODE_CELCIUS
SMODE_FAHRENHEIT
SMODE_ANGLE
-
It's important that someone else confirm these conclusions.
Any volunteers? :-)

| Hi Folks, I've just come to the same conclusion as Eric on this one. My previous tests were for the powered mode. The passive mode seems to work fine (though ut does seem to require a resonably bright light source). Guess which mode I wanted to use (...) (26 years ago, 3-Dec-98, to lugnet.robotics)
