  HB site and 2.x web browsers
 
So all of my work is incompatible with version 2.x browswers, which don't colorize text.

  RE: Wireless Communication with HB
 
Are you wanting to transmit an analog signal, e.g. faster/slower, such as most people do with a joystick, or some other purpose? Did you want the PC to generate the signal, or a standard RC transmitter receiver? I've used the HB Input Capture line (...) (27 years ago, 27-Oct-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

  Wireless Communication with HB
 
I was wondering if anyone has attempted to transmit data from a pc to a HB device using a standard RC transmitter and receiver. My goal is to be able to control an HB driven robot using a PC's joystick. Any help or suggestions would be greatly (...) (27 years ago, 26-Oct-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

Hi, I recently assembled a Handy Board and some of my motor ports don't work. With the first driver chip, motors #0 & 1, the LEDs turn on but there is no current coming from the headers.

Hi all, My name is Marcelo Manjon, and i've just finished my 1st. version of my Micromouse Robot. However, since it had some aligment problems, i've decided to use more 12 IR sensors, in order to help the robot to stay aligned along the maze and, (...)

  Re: Handyboard construction problems
 
Jonathan: Recently had the same problem myself. One of my colleagues passed on a little utility he wrote ( load68hc11 ) which set my config register just fine. I could then use HBDL for uploading programs. I sent the loadhc11 to fredm for him to (...) (27 years ago, 23-Oct-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Handyboard construction problems
 
I am in the process of assembling a Handyboard. All had gone well until I got to the stage where you download the code to the HB for the first time. This is before the memory is installed. I used HBDL to download with the register set to 0x0c. I got (...) (27 years ago, 23-Oct-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

Whoa, i just realized that the instructions *are* correct. Here's why. For this voltage test, the instructions assume you are powering your board from the DC adapter. This should give the 15 volts mentioned, unless: * you hooked up the battery pack (...) (27 years ago, 22-Oct-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Re: Rob Gaunts Last Message
 
(...) the instructions are wrong -- you should be seeing about 9v, which is the voltage on the nicad pack. i will revise the instructions. thanks for pointing out the problem. fred (27 years ago, 22-Oct-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

I sent out a message few minutes ago listing all sorts of problems I was having. Don't worry about it. I just figured it all out. I was using lib_r22.lis instead of lib_hb.lis in IC. Now things are working fine except that the voltage at pin 8 of (...) (27 years ago, 22-Oct-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
