  Vector 2x Problems...
 
I am having trouble using the Vector 2x Compass with my handyboard. I have the compass.asm file and the compass.icb file. I loaded the compass.icb file into the lib_hb.lis file so it would load automatically with IC. When I loaded IC, it said the (...) (27 years ago, 9-May-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

  Re: Accessing 2nd line of display
 
I *think* rather than /n if you type /m it should be in the second line....I don't remember which letter it is, nor do I have the robotics books near me. Or you can have however many spaces as there are (10? 15?) cursor blanks and leave off the \n (...) (27 years ago, 8-May-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Re: RF transmitters
 
(...) A simple way to get rid of the DC component is to run the data through a scrambler on the TX side, and descrambler on the RX side. This has been done successfully in 9600 baud amateur radio TNC's. 2 or 3 chips on each end of the link is all it (...) (27 years ago, 8-May-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  RF transmitters
 
(...) We did use 900 Mhz Radio Shack RF headphones (cat # 33-1145), which gave us a reasonable analog transmission (the transmitter took L+R RCA audio in, and the we connected in place of the speaker on the receiver). We could get 9600 baud through (...) (27 years ago, 8-May-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  RE: (no subject)
 
(...) If anyone can find Proxim RXA-1000 radios (900 Mhz, Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum), I wrote code for a Handyboard to program the synthesizer. You have to program two registers serially, and then must program one of those registers each time (...) (27 years ago, 8-May-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

  Re: (no subject)
 
Fred Cass, Seems like I remember reading in NUTS and VOLTS, or somewhere, about Randy Sargent and his partners involved in a competiton, using a Radio Shack AM transmitter on their robot. It gave details on how they interfaced it. Sounded pretty (...) (27 years ago, 8-May-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

  Accessing 2nd line of display
 
Howdy, One simple question. Is there a direct way to access the 2nd line of the display. Something like: printf("first line\n"); printf(?????); /* move cursor to second line */ printf("second line\n"); Thanks, Clay Timmons ctimmons@asic.sc.ti.com (27 years ago, 8-May-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

  Re: Data, are you out there?
 
(...) Sounds about right. Some displays are worse than others. I just happened to get one with a contrast that wouldn't work well until I did the above mod. As I recall, out of the first there pins, one is +5V, one is GND, and one is the contrast (...) (27 years ago, 7-May-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
