 | | Connecting a second sonar module

|
I'm curious about connecting two of the Polaroid sonar modules to the Handy Board v1.2. Does anyone know whether ports PD2, PD3 and TIC2 can be used to hook up the second unit in the same way that PD4, PD5 and TIC3 are used for one unit? Or is there (...)

My handyboard works great,with a 68HC11A1 mcu. The config of the 103f register was done in one try and had no problems. I then installed a 68HC811E2 MCU, (a 2k EEPROM version of the original). Using DLM, HBDL and PCbug to try set the config register (...) (27 years ago, 4-Feb-98, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

Hi, Try choosing a proportional font for displaying the messages (like 'system', or 'courier' or 'sans serif'). I don't use MSIE4 Outlook, this info is based on experience with the same problem using Netscape Messager. Hope it helps. Marco A.A. de (...) (27 years ago, 29-Jan-98, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

These have a variety of names; look for "PTC fuse", "PTC (...) (27 years ago, 29-Jan-98, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
