  Re: sonar
 
(...) I would imagine that this is the case since Fred states on his page that it won't work without it on most versions of the driver board. The easiest way to do it is just desolder the two pads that align with the c7 position on the HB. Stick a (...) (25 years ago, 23-Jan-00, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  sonar
 
i recently purchased a handy board, an expansion board, and a polaroid 6500 sonar sensor. i installed the expansion board, along with the appropriate libraries. i also plugged the sonar into the expansion board, and used the code for the sonar on (...)

  HP encoder
 
Hi, Does anyone know how to connect HP optical encoder to HP quadrature IC and Handyboard? Thanks. Regards, Will (25 years ago, 23-Jan-00, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Re: multitasking
 
In my reading of it, it will just chew the cycles. Here is the routine msleep(), used to implement sleep. See how it just does a busy wait? I wrote a version (now gone into data heaven when my drive crashed) that would check the time, and then give (...) (25 years ago, 22-Jan-00, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  multitasking
 
How clever is the multitasking in IC? If I have a task that I only want to run ever 10 seconds, can I just put a sleep statement at the top of the routine? Will the sleep statement chew up processor cycles, or will IC realize that it should defer to (...) (25 years ago, 22-Jan-00, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

  Re: Modifying a servo for use with HB
 
(...) What sources for servo hacking have you read? Depending on the servo (the Futaba S148 is the easiest), there are a few things to do. Using the 148 as my example; Clip off the end-stop and pull the bushing from the spline gear and remove the (...) (25 years ago, 21-Jan-00, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Handyboard and MIDI
 
I'm trying to use my handyboard to send MIDI messages to a host. I downloaded and tried the MIDI libraries from Colby Leider, and it looks like it's just what I need, but I can't get them to work with IC 2.8. Is anyone using the Handyboard with (...)

  Re: Modifying a servo for use with HB
 
If you just want to use them as motors, then B is the appropriate solution. You are correct in the motor PWM routines are just used to control the amount of energy going to the motors. The servo routines (using the expansion board) are the kind for (...) (25 years ago, 21-Jan-00, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Modifying a servo for use with HB
 
When connecting my servos (now gear head motors) to the HandyBoard - do I need to a) replace the pot with the resistor network or b) remove the electronics all together? I'm unclear if the PWM routines on the HB (fd, bk, and motor) are the kind of (...) (25 years ago, 21-Jan-00, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  multitasking support.
 
i'm running IC version 2.82. i'm not too sure how do i get the handyboard to do multi tasking on three routines: 1. control the velocity of the robot (i called the function 'dc') 2. steer (i'm steering with a front wheel) 3.identify strips on the (...)

  Shaft encoder
