  Using 2 polaroid ultra sonic modules simultaneously...
 
How would you use two ranging modules on the the same HB simult.? There are two different ways on the HB web site but they both use TIC3 at Dig. Input 7. How else would I be able to implement this? Any help would be greatly appreciated... -- --Peter (...) (25 years ago, 4-Oct-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  HB for science project?
 
Hello, Recently, I have been thinking about using a HandyBoard for my science project in High School. My project will involve the writing of algorithms, and I was planning on programming in C. I have been using the Basic Stamp II (...) (25 years ago, 4-Oct-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Re: I have a Chalanging question!
 
(...) This is a classic application for what is called an Instrumentation Amplifier. An IA functions just like an ordinary Op-Amp, however it typically offers close-to-rail-to-rail outputs and at least a very high input impedance. One would then use (...)

  Re: IC motion control
 
It sounds like your motors could be drawing too much current, and re-setting the board perhaps.

  I have a Chalanging question!
 
ok I have to read a signal with almost no curent in the mv range and have it so a computer like the hb can detect it. now I dont mean just yes or no. I mean to watch the waves in the mv level and the circut cant distort it. couse dont amps just (...) (25 years ago, 3-Oct-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

  Re: IC motion control
 
your motor probably draws too much current to work with the HB. unplug the motor and see if things work. if so, the problem is your motor. see the FAQ more for on how to choose a motor that works with the HB. fred In your message you said: (...)

  tiny gears
 
I'm looking for a very small set of gears. For example, I need a worm with a 0.025" diameter bore and another with a 0.040" diameter bore. Both of these could be as long as 3/8". The size of the worm gears doesn't matter too much, although I'd like (...) (25 years ago, 2-Oct-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

  IC motion control
 
I am having problems with programming the handyboard using Interactive C 3.2.

  Re: IC on Irix

  IC on Irix
 
Hello, I have seen on the Newton Labs website that IC is available for SGI Unix. Unfortunately I cannot find any more documentation than that. Does anyone know whether IC will work on Irix 6.2?
