  RE: Is there a device that...?
 
In C you can use the functions outport and inport, and the paralell port has TTL levels (5 V.).

  Re: Is there a device that...?
 
Its Easy to do in pascal as well as C++ using the PORT[address] command. Ive used It before to control external devices. A normal parralell pot has 8 outputs D0 - 7 and a few lines that you can use as inputs (not sure which ones though?) The port (...) (25 years ago, 13-Sep-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  RE: Is there a device that...?
 
Yeah! You're right! I've seen it done in Basic so I would assume C++ has a function. But, I don't remeber wether they are at 12V or 5V. (?) (...) (25 years ago, 13-Sep-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Re: Is there a device that...?
 
Isn't your parallel port itself what you want? I always understood that it could be reached (coded) quite easily? That should give you 7 channels! ----- Original Message ----- From: Peter <eacmen@att.net> To: Handy Board Mailing List (...) (25 years ago, 13-Sep-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Re: Four Wheel Base
 
I disassembled quite some (lego) models, I also use differential steering. I position the wheels like most models on a square (so width and length of wheel base is equal). Funny thing about a square is that a circle can be drawn from the middle (...) (25 years ago, 13-Sep-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

  Re: Is there a device that...?
 
You can try some IO cards. I don't know of any that connect to the ports but I know most can plug into ISA/PCI ports and have programmable I/O ports taht can be used by various differnt languages. I remeber somthing in the lines of "PC Systems (...) (25 years ago, 11-Sep-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Is there a device that...?
 
Is there a device that connects to a computers COM or Parallel port that can measure voltage, on different channels. All I need is a digital input like the HB. So if there is a signal it would report true and if there is no signal then it would (...) (25 years ago, 11-Sep-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Re: RF Module
 
Hi, Sorry I didn't get back to you yesterday. It sounds like you need to tune your radio modules. It could be your transmitter, receiver or both. If you don't have a function generator to create an input square wave for testing, you could try to get (...) (25 years ago, 10-Sep-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

Hi all!! Have someone the eagle files *.sch and *.brd for the hb? Thanks markus (25 years ago, 9-Sep-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Re: LMD18200
 
(...) Correct, it has a minimum voltage for correct operation. You can use a separate battery pack with a higher voltage and simply connect the grounds to your 9.6V battery. This chip is NOT a 293 replacement. You would have to build a small circuit (...) (25 years ago, 9-Sep-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
