  asm -> icb
 
hi, looks like i cannot find the shell script (as11_icb) that assembles an asm file and packs it into an icb file. in theory it should be with the pcode source distribution but it doesn't seem to be there. i'm sure i am missing something. could (...)

  how to use a 4*20 Display with the HB
 
HI, I'd like to use a 4*20 display, and i think i have to rewrite the pcode.... Have someone done it already for a 4*20 display ? if, someone have ,can you send the pcode to me ? or can someone give me instructions how to change the code ? thank You (...)

  Polaroid Sonar problems
 
Hi! I know this has been dealt with before, yet I couldn't find a good answer in the mailing list archive. Maybe someone could give me a hand, I've been having problems with the sonar connected to my HB. I followed the directions on the web page, (...)

  RE: Linx technologies RF modem
 
Dave, I'm looking seriously at the Linx HP eval kit. Please let me know how yours works out, and any tips on installation to the handy board would be greatly appreciated. Also, what if I wanted to put HP RX/TX on two robots plus host computer, I (...) (26 years ago, 20-Feb-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

  Re: msleep function in ICC11?
 
You can't use the one in the library I wrote? (its available on the iccll web site) Basically msleep spin locks on the timer waiting for systicks to increment the appropriate number of milliseconds. If you aren't using my code you can do the same (...) (26 years ago, 20-Feb-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  msleep function in ICC11?
 
I have a HB w/exp brd and a PortMaster (a stock board with a 68HC11E1, 68HC24 port expansion and 32k ram). I'm programming the HB with IC3.2 and the PortMaster with ICC11v5. I am hung up trying write a funtion similar to the HandyBoard 'msleep' (...) (26 years ago, 20-Feb-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  RE: Linx technologies RF modem
 
I managed to speak with one of Linx's applications engineers- He said that a couple of the guys over there are using the Linx modules to communicate with HC11's, so interfacing the kit with the handyboard shouldn't be much of a problem. He said I (...) (26 years ago, 19-Feb-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Re: Type conversion.
 
(...) Hi, what you want to do is called type casting,ie. you must explicitly specify the type. I've included some sample code that uses it. Because the beeper function expects a float but the knob function returns an integer, you have to modify the (...) (26 years ago, 19-Feb-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

  Re: color sensors
 
I believe that you will find that most photo transistors are sensitive to a very narrow range of frequencies, mostly in the IR range. OTOH a photo resistor is sensitive to a much wider range of frequencies and may be usable with a (colour) filter. (...) (26 years ago, 19-Feb-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Type conversion.
 
Hi to all. I'm not very practice with IC. My answere are , how can i convert a integer number to a floating point number? I want to make a moltiplication between an intger number and a floating. I make this: int temp; float dtemp; dtemp=temp*3.5; (...) (26 years ago, 19-Feb-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Polaroid Sensors
 
I just finished wiring up the HB for dual sonar sensors... A couple of problems... The first and most important is the fact that the values returned look to be completely random and often flipping between positive and negative values... Could this (...)

  SPI .vs. I2C and Documentation
 
Hi all, I've been looking for some way to connect multiple devices (Handyboards, other 68HC11's, PIC's, custom devices, & PC's). From what I can find, I2C is the Phillips protocol which is well documented and supported. (Docs, Specilaized chips, (...) (26 years ago, 19-Feb-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  rc cars and HB- simple questions

James What you see as black and what is black to IR may be different. I did some experiments for a line following race, and found that some black markers actually made the paper reflect IR better than plain white paper. The conclusion of my (...)
