  problems with main()
 
I posted earlier in the week about having a problem with the SRAM. I have determined that there is not a problem with the SRAM on the handyboard. The problem is that "main()" is not executing on reset like it is supposed to. The program that I am (...) (28 years ago, 26-Aug-98, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Re: HB's analog inputs
 
(...) Edmund, Typically the solution is to pass the 4-20 mA through a 250 ohm resistor and measure the voltage across that resistor. As long as your A/D input impedance is high, it can be ignored. A resistor is essentially a current to voltage (...) (28 years ago, 26-Aug-98, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Steppr motor pulse problem
 
Hi, I've encounter some problem on using the stepper motor with my self-built driver. I am not using the driver in the HB. I have to build out a driver. The driver chip I use is L298 and logic gate chip is L297 or 374( this chip also use in HB) . (...) (28 years ago, 26-Aug-98, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Digital Outputs
 
I have discovered that I can use PA6 as a digital output and am wondering if the same applies to PA3 if I do not require a piezo buzzer? Thank You Joe Martin joema@mpx.com.au (28 years ago, 26-Aug-98, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

  Re: interfacing V2X compass
 
(...) I ended up doing the same thing. I appreciate hearing that someone else had thesame problem, and used the same solution. It sure is frustrating that you can't trust the documentation that came with the compass; if you need to reset the thing (...) (28 years ago, 25-Aug-98, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Re: interfacing V2X compass
 
Rick, I had the same problem. Also the compass would occassionally lock up and require a reset. I tied the reset pin to a digital out and added a routine to take all the necessary pins high and then cycle the reset pin. I reset on initialization and (...)

  Re: Infrared Detector
 
(...) The most common metal can IR detectors are made by Sharp. The older ones I have are marked GP1U5X2 (with pins coming out the back of the can), but the newer ones I have are part number GP1U58Y (and have pins coming out of the bottom of the (...)

  Analogue sonar design.
 
Hi all, I'm trying to build a sonar circuit and connect it to my HandyBoard. I know Polaroid makes one, but I have no idea where to get it for little in Europe. I try to keep the interface as simple as possible, and I'll probably be using three (...) (28 years ago, 25-Aug-98, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
