  Re: Sample bump sensor routine
 
whether you use analog or digital ins, you don't need the 47k pullup because the hb already has one. just wire the signal line to ground through the normally open switch. bill, i suggest you write your program without using the multitasking (...)

  Re: Sample bump sensor routine
 
(...) Why would you use the analog ports for a bump sensor? Isn't that just a contact switch? Tie to a digital port pulled high with a 47K ohm resistor, and have the normally open contact tie the pin to ground when the contact switch is closed. The (...)

  Sample bump sensor routine
 
I am having trouble writing a routine for my bump sensors. Evertime I write a program I can't get the analog ports to initialize. I guess this is where you would connect bump switches isn't it. I can get my bot to go forward, turn, and go backward (...) (28 years ago, 4-Feb-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  re:IR sensors
 
Hi everyone, i was wondering if it's possible to drive more than one infrared LED (emitter) through the handy board and IC. Has anyone tried doing before??? i want to model the wall-following behavior in my car, by using emitter-detector pairs on (...) (28 years ago, 3-Feb-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

  Re[2]: Config 0C / 0D
 
Ed, Yes, I got round the problem by using the Newton labs IC 3.1 Beta, which does all the downloading itself. After a couple of tries, it told me that it had reset the config register. I never managed to change it with hbdl, and now I only use IC (...) (28 years ago, 3-Feb-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Re: Hi folks a question about ic.
 
(...) In regular C, you just ask for what you want by declaring the convert in a statement like... Knob_value = knob(); How_much = float(knob_value); servo_deg(How_much); or save a variable with... Knob_value = knob; servo_deg(float(Knob_value)); (...) (28 years ago, 2-Feb-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Nevermind about that int to float question.
 
Duh- sorry I just realized that you just typecase the variable however you want it to be. Anyway- visit my hardware hacks page for a laugh if you have time. -Ira (28 years ago, 1-Feb-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Hi folks a question about ic.
 
Hi, is there some kind of integer to float call in ic? I am trying to write a test servo routine that takes the knob() value and turns the servo to that number of degrees using servo_deg() which takes a float. Any ideas? My board was just recenly (...)
