Fred, I have FTP'ed pcode-2.81.dist.tar.Z from cher (thanks for getting it back!) within it were the files foo.s19, pcode_rw.s19, lobo.asm, pcode.asm, and some makefiles.. Cool, but the files required for compiling IC 2.81 that I can't find are (...) (28 years ago, 1-Jun-96, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

(...) The FAQ is linked from the main HB web page under the title "the Handy Board FAQ", or directly at: (URL) pcode source is at ftp://cher.media.mit...dist.tar.Z and also (URL) should fix that last link, because you'd never find it unless you knew (...)

Greetings! (...) Stupid Question.. Where is this faq? Web or FTP? I also couldn't find the file pcode_2.81.tar you mentioned last week. I will be porting IC 3.1, but wouldn't mind doing 2.81 while waiting for the 3.1 source. (...) Yes, The HB nicad (...) (28 years ago, 1-Jun-96, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Re: Relationship between voltage and analog()
 
(...) The input voltage range is 0 to 5 v, and the output number range is 0 to 255. The relationship is linear, so 2.5v = 128 (for example) (...) to convert from the output # to the voltage, it would be 5v x (output # / 255) so 47 is about 0.92 (...)

  Relationship between voltage and analog()
 
Hello! Would anybody please send me a mail letting me to know the relationship between the output of ananlog() function and the voltage ? For example, if my sensor works under the command "if (analog(0)>47) then ...." What would be the voltage ? Any (...) (28 years ago, 1-Jun-96, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

(...) Yes, see the FAQ for a recently added section on the battery charging system. (...) Yes, this is a good idea if you are separately charging the HB's battery. As you correctly surmise, you don't want the two charging circuits contending with (...) (28 years ago, 1-Jun-96, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

Greetings! I have just built my first Handy-Board.. Works Great!! I can't decide if I will enjoy writing software or building expansions more, I guess I'll just have to do lots of both before I decide. Two questions. My 'bot has it's own 12 volt (...)

  Re: 15' max measurement
 
(...) I just noticed that the Polaroid Specs say that the transducer pulse current is 2 A. 100mA idle. Since it was mentioned previously that the HB's VR is rated for 1 Amp, how would this affect the sonar? Perhaps whatever is left of the 1A (...)

  Interfacing PICs and Basic Stamps to Handy
 
Since (I think) it is fairly easy to interface the HC11's SPI interface to a PIC/Basic Stamp I & II this is probably easier than creating a custom RS-232 interface. Has anyone done anything like this? Sean R. Cunningham (28 years ago, 28-May-96, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

Greetings! I am currently porting ic version 2.860 to the Amiga. I have completed as11, dlm, and written a pre-processor in ANSI C for use with this.

  Polaroid 6500
 
Hi, I am trying to install the polaroid 6500. I use the schematics I found with the sonar.c file at this site. It doesn't work, I dont understand the Motor power connection why does it have 4 pins ? One motor only uses 3 pins ? I think the sonar (...) (28 years ago, 26-May-96, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Re: pcode, libraries for two servos
 
(...) Randy, I'm having trouble making the TOC2 work with Pcode_hb, something trashes the output whether I disable IR-Xmit or not. Do I need a new Pcode in order to divert TOC2 to my own use? I'm treating OC2 the same as I treat OC3, but only OC3 (...) (28 years ago, 25-May-96, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Re: Fuse on motor power cables
 
(...) All system power, incl. motor pwr, already runs through the existing polyswitch. They're not too fast, so I'm not sure if they'll save you. the motor chips do have over-current protection of their own, though it has been known to fail from (...)

  Fuse on motor power cables
 
My current robot platform is a hacked toy and does not have ideal motors. I am concerned about toasting my motor driver chips. Can I put a polyswitch fuse in series in the motor lines to protect against this? They don't seem to be polarity (...) (28 years ago, 24-May-96, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  expansion board
 
Hi all, I have not worked with the handy baord much yet but I also feel that it would be nice to have a few more digital i/o ports available. I guess that is short, sweet, and to the point. sherman@plains (28 years ago, 23-May-96, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
