Hello I am asking for RJ12 connectors in electronic components shop in Spain,and they does not know what is that. My question is: What is the difference between RJ11 and R12?, is it mechanical?, just only pin configuration? (28 years ago, 2-Dec-96, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

Someone has already taken the neccessary steps to relieve us of most of the work. Go to the HandyBoard HP's Software contributions and look into the directory of "kent". From there, you can download the source code that Kent wrote for the HB sonar (...) (28 years ago, 1-Dec-96, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

HI, I would like to connect my Polaroid transducer to my Handy Board in such a way that I can determine if there are objects in front of me and how far away the object(s) are.

I think you're right. I used a transistor to drive the INIT with its emmiter and feed the TTL signal to the base. It seems to work fine now. :) You know what's funny, I tried using a CMOS chip (HCT) and it was able to drive the INIT signal. I figure (...) (28 years ago, 28-Nov-96, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

Hi, In the book "Mobile robotics -Inspiration to Implementation" the addition of a logarthmic amplifier to the o/p of a photocell is discussed. This logarithmic mapping is supposed to make the sensor more sensitive in dark rooms. Has anyone tried (...) (28 years ago, 27-Nov-96, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

Has anyone used the Fast Track as a base for a robot and used the H-bridge in it to control the motors ?? Any link where I could find information about it ?? Thanks Oriol (28 years ago, 27-Nov-96, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

I hooked up the sonar to the +5 and GND on the HB and it wroked fine. I used TIC3 for Echo and pin 9 of 2nd Motor driver for INIT and GND for BINH I also hooked up the sonar power leads to the 9.6V unregulated motor power header! It also worked! (...)

Hi, I'm stuck. I'm trying to use TTL output of 74 series IC's to signal to INIT. I can't get it to work properly. Here's the deal. When I touch INIT to the 5V bus, the transducer "chirps". But when I touch INIT to a high level TTL output, it doesn't (...) (28 years ago, 23-Nov-96, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

You can use either. The 180 ohm resistor will make the output LED brighter, which is generally better, unless you make it so bright as to reduce its lifespan. -Fred ---...--- (...) (28 years ago, 22-Nov-96, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

Hi, I'm a little confused. On the Handy Board web page it says to use a 330 ohm resistor, but a coleuge of mine said to use a 180 ohm rest.. Please help.
