  Re: Mobile Robots book
 
I recieved my copy in a special deal from a book club that catered to electronics enthusiasts. It was a kind of Book-of-the-month club. The name escapes me at the moment. Anyway, you got to choose 3 books for like $5. Then you just had to buy one (...) (28 years ago, 27-Jan-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Re: Vector 2x again
 
(...) You'll need 3 input and 2 output lines. One input and two outputs are available at the SPI port, (right side of board, J6?). Find two more discrete inputs on the Handyboard and you're set. All the other inputs on the V2X can be hardwired high (...) (28 years ago, 27-Jan-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Vector 2x again
 
I know this topic has come up time and time again, but from all the previous postings I still am unsure of some things. First of all has anyone be able to get the vector working *without* using any other microcontroller board (using only the (...) (28 years ago, 26-Jan-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Re: -POWER-GLITCH-
 
Make sure your downloader is configured to download "pcode_hb.s19" and not any of the other variants (eg pcode_r22.s19). Avard, please send me an email and let me know if this solves your problem. -Fred In your message you said: (...) (28 years ago, 26-Jan-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Re: memory not remembering...
 
Ben -- the pin 27 R/W line of the RAM should be connected directly to the R/W line of the 6811. I don't remember the pin # off hand -- it's 7 i think -- but just check the schematic. check the continuity first on the board. if that's ok, then check (...)

  memory not remembering...
 
I'm stumped. In the process of assembling my first handyboard, I have just reached the stage where I install the memory (all previous checkpoints passed). The computer successfully downloads the bootstrap, sets the config register correctly, and (...) (28 years ago, 26-Jan-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  -POWER-GLITCH-
 
My handyboard is experiencing some kind of a -POWER-GLITCH-. At least that's what is displayed just before the board shuts itself off. How did this happen, and what can I do about it? Thanks in advance. Avard Fairbanks (28 years ago, 26-Jan-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Re: IC loop
 
(...) There are a number of ways to do this in C. If you get the code that comes with the Handyboard, they have msleep(500L); which sleeps for 500 milliseconds (L for LONG Integer) and then returns to the calling program. My code is at work, but I'm (...) (28 years ago, 26-Jan-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Re: Mobile Robots book
 
(...) True. I ordered one, then another a few weeks later at $4.95. About two months ago I tried to get five and they were out of stock. They won't post their phone number and it isn't included in their newspaper-like catalog that I now get every (...) (28 years ago, 25-Jan-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  IC 3.1

  Re: Mobile Robots book
 
(...) Yes, Edward R. Hamilton Booksellers has been sending me thier list periodically now and I never saw the Mobile Robots Book in it. I guess it's a good chance that they probably will not restock it. (...) (28 years ago, 25-Jan-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  8MHz crystal
 
The 8MHz crystal is no longer listed in the Mouser Catalog (part #332-5080). When I look in the DigiKey catalog, it lists several 8 Mhz crystals with different load capacitances (18pF, 20pF, 32pF, and Series). Does it matter which I get? If so, (...)

  Mobile Robots book
 
Hello: Sometimes back there were posts here that the Mobile Robots book could be obtained from a bookseller in CT for $5! However, later appends said that this booksellers stock was exhausted. Are there any other discount book sellers around? (...) (28 years ago, 25-Jan-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

  books
 
Hi all, What is the best way to get my hands on a copy of Mobile Robots: Inspiration to Implementation? My local book vendor wants me to wait two months for it. I'm hoping to find a faster solution. Thanks, Dave (28 years ago, 24-Jan-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
