I don't claim to be an expert on this, but here are my ideas. To get a clean HB up and running you need to do the following (assuming talkeree.s19 is larger than 256 bytes) 1) Start off by booting the HB into bootstrap mode. This makes the board (...)

Interesting discussion but it raises a few more questions. Are there any (bad) side effects when user code that is inserted in the ISR takes longer to execute than the 1 msec interrupt cycle. From experience it appears that the ISR runs on the next (...) (25 years ago, 2-Nov-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

Hi Greg, It all depends. Various features of the HB can be turned on and off to change the amount of work done in the main ISR. By default the code uses 300ms to execute.
