  HC11 pink book
 
Hi, I've seen this referenced, and grabbed the link that someone provided the other day. I've had a look at all the different manuals listed, but I can' work out which is the right one to grab. My handyboard has the 68HC11A1FN part number. Can (...) (25 years ago, 21-Oct-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Re: GLOBAL POSITIONING SYSTEM
 
(...) Yes, I have done it, perhaps others. I use mine nearly every day connected to a GPS, but it has nothing to do with robotics. You're a bit off on your accuracy though, the spec actually says you'll be within 100 meters 95% of the time. I think (...) (25 years ago, 21-Oct-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Re: Vector 2X problem
 
Hi, finally my Vector2X works! Just because of the wrong selection of transistor. Guide comes from Tom Brusehaver (1997). Thanks! Any way, the result seems not consistense as the heading 'hang' when I turn off the HB and on again later. Instead of (...) (25 years ago, 21-Oct-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

  sony ir function
 
I would like to know why the sony ir_data() only display 8 bit number instead of the 12 or 13 bit IR message? Does the number represent data only instead of the address or device? Does anybody knows how I could make the handyboard display the (...) (25 years ago, 21-Oct-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

  Encoder IO board
 
Hi everybody I have an application where I need to read 4 encoders, I am looking for an accurate encoder reading IO board which can be connected to an IBM PC. I am also looking for the rotary encoders for that. Please if you can help me find the IO (...) (25 years ago, 21-Oct-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Re: Please I need help!
 
(...) I saw a contributed design a while back (on the HB web site, I think) of a multiplexer for running multiple Polaroid transducers off of one Polaroid ranging module. It involved the use of a few transistors and such. The idea was to use extra (...) (25 years ago, 20-Oct-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  for loop stack overflow
 
THis may be a dumb question on my part, but we are getting stack overflows on for loops such as for(int i = 0;i<1000;i++){...} when using values over 100 or so. Is this an 8bit counter thing or something else? Thanks, Owen Popplestone (25 years ago, 20-Oct-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Re: Handyboard low voltage motor control
 
Well, I went with separate h-bridge to maintain PWM and it turns out that even though the motors are geared down, they still don't have enough torque to haul around all the batteries. Looks like I'll stick with 9v motors... Thanks for the (...) (25 years ago, 20-Oct-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

  GLOBAL POSITIONING SYSTEM
 
I learned that somebody has successfully connected GARMIN GPS to HB. If I am not wrong , this GPS is not be able to receive any signal in building. If this the case, GPS is only good for outdoor robotics. Another thing is about the accuracy of the (...) (25 years ago, 20-Oct-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
