|
I have also had problems and mishaps with the various downloaders... Sometimes DL will work in a full-screen DOS box, other times it doesn't. HBDL seems to work now, whereas it hadn't previously. I have no clue what is causing these to work or not (...) (26 years ago, 24-Jun-98, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

| | IR emitter

Is the ir emitter on the handyboard just a standard red led? Is it efficient at emitting in the IR range. Are there better emitters? I want to build an emitter and detector set and have studied the multiplexing circuit posted. It uses the same LED. (...) (26 years ago, 24-Jun-98, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

Thanks, Thanks to your suggestions, I was finally able to get the bootloader downloaded to my 2 handyboards. What I ended up having to do was use the DL.EXE program in full-screen mode.
