  Re: Data acquisition through analog input
 
Mr. Han, I think you can try to transmit the data through radio frequency transmitter to the receiver which is connected to the PC. I have tried this but it is digital data and not analog. Thanks, Wil. ----- Original Message ----- From: Chul Hun,Han (...) (25 years ago, 16-Oct-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

Can anyone help me? I'm looking for a UK supplier for the Handyboard, either as a kit or complete. I would also like some advice about how I could integrate the Handyboard into a A-Level physic department. I'm interesting in introducing robotics (...)

  Re: interfacing the GP2D12
 
Thats great Gary, This was the same conclusion that I'd come to myself, however I've now run into another problem with the otherwise brilliant 'D12 sensor. I'm currently using the Digitalker speech system from Jameco, and when the 'D12 is plugged in (...) (25 years ago, 14-Oct-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

  Re: Start_process problem
 
alex, each of your processes must be an indefinite loop. otherwise starting them up via start_process just runs through once. so, e.g.: void checkir() { while (1) { if (digital(4)) { /* go backward for some time */ /* turn a little */ /* go forward (...)

  re: start_process problem
 
My suggestion is to double check that you double check the simple things withing the code (your code should be executing an infinite loop) while(1) { code .... } If the code is more complex and involves external assembly modules, check that they (...)

  Start_process problem
 
Hi When I try to start a process , the code downloads fine , it runs on the board with no errors but it only excutes the first proceess once and none of the others. void main() { start_process(fwrd()); start_process(checkir()); (...) (25 years ago, 15-Oct-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

  Re: NEW POWER SUPPLY
 
What about this idea? Cut the motor trace as per on Fred's website....than desolder the motor power header (the one that plug into the Handy board) on the expansion board and flip the header upward and resolder it to the expansion board. Then reuse (...) (25 years ago, 14-Oct-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Re: NEW POWER SUPPLY
 
That is the same thing, except much easier. Plus we save donut money. However, we'd have to look at the effect of 7 volts reverse bias on the motor LED's. Plus, we'd have to make real sure not to short the bent pin 8 to the socket underneath it. (...) (25 years ago, 14-Oct-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Re: NEW POWER SUPPLY
 
Great solution Gary! How about just pulling the L293D/SN754410 from the U11 socket, bending pin-8 out and soldering the REALLY BIG battery positive lead to it, then soldering the negative lead to pin-1 without bending it out, and then reinstalling (...)

  Re: NEW POWER SUPPLY
 
This was explained a week or two ago here on the list server. Check back and you'll find out what traces to cut, etc. However, I have found another way that is very simple, and does not require you to make difficult-to-fix cuts on your boards. Just (...)

I NEED TO KNOW THE EXACT STEPS TO CONNECT A NEW MOTOR POWER SUPPLY TO THE HANDYBOARD WHILE IS HAS THE EXTENSION BOARD CONNECTED TO IT.

  More Motor Controller Question
 
Thanks Fred. That got me going in the right direction. But...... When I poke a value into $7000 I can see the corresponding input pin on the l293 react. But it will not stay in the position that I set it to. It will return back to the initial state (...) (25 years ago, 14-Oct-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
