  Help needed!
 
Hi, I have assembled my recently bought Handy Board kit and have run into major problems: In paragraph 6.0.5 of the assembly manual, the Handy Board is tested for the microprocessor and memory circuits. After powering up the board and running IC (...) (26 years ago, 28-Mar-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Re: Handy Board inputs
 
Hi Becky, If you are using the HB with the expansion board, you *do* need new library files loaded. Check the web site at: (URL) easiest way to run new library files is to edit lib_hb.lis to include them. To test the HB inputs w/o the expansion (...)

  Handy Board inputs
 
Hi, my name is Becky Browning. I am currently working on building a robot using the Handy Board. I am having considerable troubles though getting either the digital or analog inputs to work. Right now I have analogs ports 0 and 1 working with (...) (26 years ago, 27-Mar-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  analog inputs on expansion board
 
Hi, Two questions: 1) When I plug a Lego reflectance sensor into the expansion board it seems to work fine. When I use the angle sensor it seems to work fine. When I plug them in at the same time the angle sensor stops working. No change to the (...) (26 years ago, 27-Mar-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

  Re: Robot Mapping
 
(...) I've been thinking about this too. The problem as I see it is that without some shaft encoders on the wheels, your robot doesn't really know how far it's moved, and therefore where it is in the map. If you power on the forward motor for 2 (...) (26 years ago, 26-Mar-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

  Re: Help with pointers
 
(...) Actually, in 'normal C', to be completely correct you would cast the pointer conversion to show that you really knew what you were doing, like this: p = (char *) &x; Unfortunately, neither the free ware IC nor IC 3.2 support this.

  RE: Sharp GP2D02
 
Scott, The reason I wrote mine the way I did was so that I could avoid disabling interrupts for long periods of time. If you don't care about timer interrupts or things like wheel encoders, either program should work fine. My program uses digital 15 (...) (26 years ago, 25-Mar-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Robot Mapping
 
Hello, I am working on an autonomous mobile robot. Which has a sonar and infared sensor incorporated into it. Right now it can avoid objects, by sensing it and backing up and turning. I want my robot to take the information from the sensors and map (...) (26 years ago, 25-Mar-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Re: Help with pointers
 
(...) When you do pointer arithmatic, you work in increments of what the pointer points to. So if you have a pointer to an int, as in the above example, when you add one to it, you actually make it point to the next int, not the next byte or word. (...)

  Re: HB Memory
 
Stef, The HB comes with a 32K ram chip addressed at $8000 and above. A fair amount of this space is taken up with the Pcode interpreter if you run Interactive C, but there is still lots of room left for programs. Good luck, Gary Livick (26 years ago, 25-Mar-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

  Help with pointers
 
Hi all little question: How can I ad a value to a pointer ?? int *px, x; px = &x; px = px + 1; (????? pointing to the lowbyte of x for example) Is it just NOT possible with IC or am I missunderstanding anything ????
