Hi, yeah... me I just went through such trouble using Java. The RTS should be 'false'. Then by experimenting I found switching the DTR before and after sending to have some positive effect. I trust you adhere to + starting a session with 'Alive' (...) (25 years ago, 24-Jan-01, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.robotics.cybermaster, lugnet.robotics.rcx)

In my experience, rotational sensors are accurate to within +/-5%. 100% accurate sensors would be great, but 95% accurate sensors are still very useful. You can compensate for the inaccuracy in various ways, e.g. in the software. IMHO, this is no (...) (25 years ago, 24-Jan-01, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) this seams to be correct :) there might be one problem. If you are to fast, the RCX might loose some ticks. The maximum speed depends on the used firmeware. Carsten (25 years ago, 23-Jan-01, to lugnet.robotics)

I just got my 1st rotational sensor and have a quick question for you all. I have the following gearing on my robot. Point A gears 8 <--> 40 8 <--> 40 Point B so this is: (5:1) x (5:1) = (25:1) Right? Now if I put my rotational sensor at Point A, do (...) (25 years ago, 23-Jan-01, to lugnet.robotics)
