  Re: Motors & handyboard
 
(...) It has been my experience that it is easier to change the drive circuitry than it is to change the motors. The circuitry is just solder and chips, the motors are mechanical tooling. Driving the Tamiya BullDozer from the HB is certainly (...) (28 years ago, 18-Feb-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  reset vector
 
Hi, I am trying to run a basic assembled .asm file on the handy-board without IC. Since the board doesn't have a reset button, do I use the power on reset (turning board off/on) vector location of $FFFF:$FFFF to indicate the start of my code? -Luke (28 years ago, 18-Feb-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

  Re[2]: expansion board

  problems downloading own .asm
 
Look at the .s19 file, and see if it's downloading anything between 0 and FF. (You should be able to stare at your .s19 file and the pcode for a while and figure out the 4 hex bytes which contain the address for a line). Downloading something to the (...)

  Re: expansion board
 
I too have used a similar technique. I used a 555 timer and a 567 tone decoder instead of a PIC. Using an IR can from Rat Shack, and five ir-LED's I get a sensor that sees straight ahead, 30 degrees and 60 degrees to each side. Set the 555 for about (...)
