Are there any HB users in the Long Beach, CA area? I'm interested in getting a group together to build and run small robots in a maze to develop navigation and AI code in IC. We'd meet once a month on whichever saturday doesn't interfere with RSSC (...) (25 years ago, 16-Feb-00, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

(...) Ah! I see the problem. If you really wanted to do it, I'm sure you could scan through the Mac software to find where the baud rate was set, and then change a few bytes. It might take some time to find it though. You could also ask Newton Labs (...) (25 years ago, 16-Feb-00, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

(...) Ah, I tried this, but it breaks the pcode serial connection. IC on the Mac side seems to demand a 9600-baud connection and can't compensate for different rates. I suppose I should move to a different C compiler, but I'd lose the interactivity (...) (25 years ago, 16-Feb-00, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

(...) I figured it out either from the Handyboard web pages at MIT or from the big pink book (Motorola HC11 Book). I have had my Handyboard receiving from a GPS and tranmitting to a TNC at 4800 baud. Initially did it with IC, but am now using GCC (...) (25 years ago, 16-Feb-00, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

Does anyone know how to reduce the baud rate used by IC? (I'm running Mac version 3.1.) I'd like to replace the serial cable with an RF link, but keep the interactivity of IC. Incidentally, I've found that the Parallax RF stamps work quite well on (...) (25 years ago, 16-Feb-00, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

Hi everyone! The RF tx/rx units shown on the page were from Ming Microsystems. They were rated for 1200 baud, but I've been able to transmit/receive slower using the Parallax Inc. RF boards, which were rated for 300 baud. For slower serial (...) (25 years ago, 16-Feb-00, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

Hi.. does anyone know how to interface GP1u58X or IS1u60 Sharp IR sensor with handboard ?? i've tired to hack the GP1u58X from digital to analog output and plug it into analog input of HB, but the result is not good.. is there any software which can (...)

My transmitter module can accept upto 1200 baud. can i modify this driver to run at 1200baud. if possible how? i dont really understant assembly code. could you also point me to a book or manual which gives assembler commands. many thanks M Fazal (...)
