the advise of turning off the serial port under NT was only to enable using the IC DOS apps. if you are using contemporary software tools, then it is not necessary to do so. just access the serial port according to the recommended manner. fred In (...)

(...) <snip> The poke command writes a byte (eight bits) into memory. The peek command reads a byte from memory. The bit_set command turns on the specified bits of a byte in memory, but leaves the other bits unaffected. An integer constant that (...) (26 years ago, 7-Aug-98, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

Can the HandyBoard interface to I2C devices through it's SPI (or otherwise) port? If so, does anyone have the source code to do so? I am interfacing the National LM4832 chip to it. Thanks in advance. (26 years ago, 7-Aug-98, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

(...) One more thought. I assume you are using a seperate supply (of some sort) for the Sonar module, so be sure to tie the pullup to the HB's +5V! Rick (26 years ago, 6-Aug-98, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

(...) I just checked my copy of the Polaroid Sonar Module documentation, and it does in deed state that the module can sink up to 0.1 mA when ECHO is pulled high. It sounds like your module is drawing around 0.064 mA = ((5V - 2V)/47Kohms), so it is (...) (26 years ago, 6-Aug-98, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

I checked the ECHO signal and found it to be at 2.0V when plugged into TIC3 on the HB. I also applied a pull-up resitor which did send ECHO to 5V when not pinging. However, in both cases, I still had seemingly random positive and negative values (...) (26 years ago, 6-Aug-98, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
