  Re: IC Question
 
(...) I haven't tried this, but there is a dos command which will allow you to display a file 1 page at a time. Try the "Type" command then "file name" you want to see, followed by a pipe (| shift-backslash), "more" command, then enter. If this (...) (27 years ago, 30-Apr-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Re: IC Question
 
I was just wondering if anyone knew of a better way to see all of the functions when you type list functions on the DOS IC screen. On my P166 it is nearly impossible to press the enter key and then the Pause button before all of the functions have (...) (27 years ago, 30-Apr-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  my IR wont work
 
Hi all, my IR just doesnt budge.... I poke(0x1000, 0x40) at the C: prompt and connected the oscilloscope to the IR LED. The oscilloscpe showed a straight line at about 5Volts. I tried using Radio Shack IR sensor card and but didnt find any trace of (...) (27 years ago, 30-Apr-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Re: IC Question
 
Imagine me... answering somebodys IC question....Anyway, in response to Bill Conroy's question, when using the IC dos version, there is a way to see the entire "list function". After running the command, hit the "Pause" key and this will stop the (...) (27 years ago, 30-Apr-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Re: IC question
 
Are you sure you are using the Handy Board libraries? Make sure that you are set up to load "lib_hb.lis" and NOT "lib_r22.lis". -Fred (...) (27 years ago, 30-Apr-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  interfacing HB w/Mini-SSC
 
Fred (or anyone), I'm working with a group trying to interface Scott Edward's Mini-SSC II with the HB. By directly connecting the SSC to a computer and running a simple QBASIC program, we verified that the SSC works correctly when it receives proper (...)

  Expansion board
 
Is there a tenative date that the expansion board will be released? If it is still in the works I would like to make a suggestion for the design. Along with the other functions already described (ie. sonar connection, more analog inputs, ect...) I (...) (27 years ago, 30-Apr-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Re: IC question
 
Bill, If you use the windows IC you won't have this problem. As for the Dos version, I had the same problem, but never figured out how to either slow it down or pipe it to more. My suggestion, just use the windows IC. :) (27 years ago, 30-Apr-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  IC question
 
Is there a way to get IC to list a page worth of functions with the command: "list functions". Now that I have successfully communicated with the board, I am writing control code for it. I have the motor circuits under program control and am now (...) (27 years ago, 30-Apr-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  program needed

  Connecting a Sharp GP1U58Y
 
Hi. I'm trying to connect a Sharp GP1U58Y 38KHz IR detector to one of the analog inputs. The problem is that the device outputs a voltage and doesn't seem to be pull down transistor device so the internal 47K pullup seems to be messing it up. Any (...)

  part number for ceramic resonator X1?
 
Hi, the parts list for the Handyboard doesn't list a part number for a ceramic resonator, only for an 8mHz crystal. Does anyone know the number for the substitute ceramic resonator? Thanks, Duncan (27 years ago, 28-Apr-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Can't seem to find Sharp IS1U60...
 
Hi, I can't locate the Sharp IS1U60 IR demodulator anywhere. Everyone seems to be out of stock or requires a minimum order. Has anyone had any luck getting one of these recently? Thanks, Duncan (27 years ago, 28-Apr-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Learning IC
 
Greetings everyone! When it comes to programming in IC, sometimes I think I'm starting to learn something and other times I feel like a complete idiot. I think it's mostly syntax thats killing me. And things like while within a while....and the ! == (...) (27 years ago, 28-Apr-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Re: Motor Driver Chips
 
The current still goes through the chip. 1 amp max. But now it will get more hot cuz you disipate more power accross the integrated transistors with the higher voltage. I think Fred mentioned that there was a thermal shutdown. (Is this true?) But I (...) (27 years ago, 28-Apr-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

  Motor Driver Chips
 
With external batteries driving the motor outputs(12V), does one have to worry about the 1amp rule of the driver chips, or can the chips still support a loas of 1amp before gong haywire?
