  Re: PID Control
 
(...) Yep ... and no. The following was applied to a pneumatic cylinder controlled via an Amplicon Liveline I/O card and an SMC proportional valve (ie not Lego). code ***...*** pidloop: 'e = error, sp = set point (desired value), pv = process value (...)

  RE: PID Control
 
This sounds like the sort of software that would be benifitial to everyone working with the Handyboard, perhaps it could be posted on the HB site? Fred? Reagrds, Matt (...) (25 years ago, 27-Jan-00, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Re: PID Control
 
Hi Mike: May I obtain also the code that you mentioned? I'm supposing the code was used at the HandyBoard? Thanks in advance for your help... Victor G.

  Re: colour sensor
 
I would suggest that the sensors are picking up IR. I would wager that your color filters are passing the IR with little attenuation and that your sensors are peaked in the IR region and little affected by the visible color information. If you have (...) (25 years ago, 27-Jan-00, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Re: colour sensor
 
(...) I posted to this yesterday, but my reply seems to have not appeared. What you need to have, is four sensors, not three. The fourth has no filter, and measures 'ambient' light. You then need to compare the return from this, to the other three (...) (25 years ago, 27-Jan-00, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  HandyBoard died
 
Hi all! I have some troubles with my HB. I have set it up together with the expansion board, and it worked properly and very fine. Then once, unfortunately, the LCD, connected to the expansion board, touched one of the five motor-power diodes, and (...) (25 years ago, 27-Jan-00, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Re: PID Control
 
Bill I have code in QuickBasic and C, would this be any good to you?? It was code that I used at Uni and both versions have been tested on real apps so I know they work. For example, I developed a pneumatic cyclinder controller based on the QB (...) (25 years ago, 27-Jan-00, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  PID Control
 
Has anyone out there developed a good PID control program in IC. I didn't want to reinvent the wheel if it was already available. Thanks Bill Denzel (25 years ago, 27-Jan-00, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Re: colour sensor
 
(...) I have typically used phototransistors rather than CDS photocells but both will work depending on the application. Sensors are like computer programs, when they do one thing they are fairly easy, if they do multiple things they are more (...) (25 years ago, 26-Jan-00, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Re: Ceramic resonator for mini board
 
(...) I searched their site and got the SMD components only for some reason. But the part you want is in there. Try either PX800-ND or PX800MC-ND I'm not sure what the difference is. the 'MC part looks like what I've used but the Manual states that (...)

  colour sensor
 
hi chuck i tried using the photocells i got with the gleason research sensor motor kit. i used red green and blue filter, but the values are almost same (with a variation of 1 or 2). the variation is much more sensitive to the distance between the (...)

  Ceramic resonator for mini board
 
Hi all, I am having a problem with the ceramic resonator for the Miniboard and I hope someone out theer may help. In the MiniBoard part list the ceramic resonator is listed as DigiKey part # PX800. However, that is an incomplete part number that (...) (25 years ago, 26-Jan-00, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  MIT 6.270 robot design competition, Thursday, Jan 27
 
hi everyone, the mit 6.270 contest is this week. it's open to the public; you just show up. the official start time is 6 pm. that means you must get there between 4 and 5 pm, depending on how good you'd like your seats to be. typically, all the (...)

  typos corrected in README for 6.270 SPWM routines
 
Sigh...you proofread and proofread, and still you miss typos... I found and fixed some in the file ftp://junior.apk.net...0_SPWM.TXT So, if you grabbed it yesterday, grab this one again today. Sorry for the inconvenience. *Rich* (25 years ago, 25-Jan-00, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

  Distance Sensors
 
Hi All: Does anyone know of any good mini distance measuring sensors which can be used with a microprocessor? The required range is 0-30 mm and small size. Names of distributors would be greatly appreciated. Thank You. Raj (25 years ago, 25-Jan-00, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Re: Handy Board Not Responding
 
It is possible to overcharge the HB only if you use the Serial Interface & Battery Charger board switched into Zap charge mode. Zap charge mode will fully charge the HB battery in three hours, after which point the battery will overheat and could (...) (25 years ago, 25-Jan-00, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Handy Board Not Responding
 
I was using the handy board when it ran out of power. I decided to charge the board for 14 hours but I actually left it charging for 17 hours. Afterwards I tried downloading the pcode_hb.s19 into the board to make sure it would work. Unfortunately I (...) (25 years ago, 25-Jan-00, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
