  H2000 optical position sensor
 
Hi, I am planning to build a position detector with a H2000 chip. The chip is used in several optical mice, for example the H2000/0006 can be found inside the Microsoft IntelliEye mouse. I sill have difficulties in finding the manufacturer and the (...) (24 years ago, 10-Jul-00, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

  Memory erased
 
Hi, Is it normal that any time I start IC, and the HB sinchronize with it, all the programs in the memory are erased, and there is only the ones the IC download at that moment (the ones in lib_hb.lis) ? If not, what can be the problem? If I use the (...) (24 years ago, 9-Jul-00, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Handboard supplier?
 
We are looking for assembled handyboards with the LCD detachable. Pricing and shipping means are requested for F.O.B. our doors in Waterloo, Ontario, Canada. The units will be used for student projects. Thanks (24 years ago, 7-Jul-00, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Any work on using normal IR readings?
 
Has anyone done any work on using simple IR sensors as (short) range-finders / proximity detectors? Basically a reflectance sensor, but with a discrete infrared emitter and detector. One of the problems you notice right away when using these is that (...) (24 years ago, 7-Jul-00, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Re: translation
 
Loose translation (by Gary Livick, not known for my language skills, or any skills for that matter): Hi. I'm very interested in knowing how one communicates with an hc12 via the serial port. I'd be grateful if someone could send me all the (...) (24 years ago, 6-Jul-00, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

  Reset on the HB
 
Could someone tell me where the reset button refered to in documents for the Handy Board is? I know the master reset is the on/off switch. TIA. Steve (24 years ago, 6-Jul-00, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Re: 6.8 nF Capacitor
 
The 6.6nF was the capacitance measured for the two 6.8nF capacitors that I have managed to get (rated as 10% tolerance). The problem is that the parts listed for the HB are 2% tolerance 6.8nF capacitors which gives a lowest value of 6.6664nF which (...) (24 years ago, 6-Jul-00, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Re: 6.8 nF Capacitor
 
(...) Yes. Capacitors have typically very loose tolerances anyhow; usually 20% unless you buy specifically selected samples in a tighter tolerance. The 6.8 is a standard value while the 6.6 you have is likely a specially selected non-standard value. (...) (24 years ago, 6-Jul-00, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  6.8 nF Capacitor
 
Can any body tell me if a 6.6nF capacitor will do to replace the 6.8nF in the IR Transmission circuit (Fred?) ?. Thanks in advance. John Hatton (24 years ago, 6-Jul-00, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  HB to Comms board cable
 
Is there a 'best' length for the telephone cable between the HB and the Comms board. I am about to start construction and I was wondering if there was a maximum length for the cable and if a particular length was recommended. Thanks for your help. (...)

  Re: Connect HP 48GX
 
Gruezi/ Hi, (...) Instead of using the serial port, how about using the HP4**x IR port? I recall there being HP4**x programs that emulate IR remote controls which should be easy to modify (?) for general-purpose communications. Marco A. Assfalk de (...)

  Handyboard startup problems
 
Hi all, I'm having some problems with me previously functioning handyboard. I'm using a standard board which has worked fine for nearly a year. Recently it didn't get any use for awhile and the batteries ran down. After charging them for 18+ hours I (...) (24 years ago, 5-Jul-00, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Re: 6.8nF Capacitor
 
(...) Not knowing what parts the HB uses, but assuming it is something like a polystyrene cap, then I think I have some in my component drawer. Send me your address, and I'll stick a couple in the post. Best Wishes (24 years ago, 5-Jul-00, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Re: VECTOR 2X
 
This is my routine to use the Vector 2x with my board (see link below my name) with an I/O expansion board connected. You will need to change the I/O port #defines to work with the Handy Board I/O ports on your expansion board, but other than that (...) (24 years ago, 4-Jul-00, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Re: VECTOR 2X
 
Hi Robert, It has been over a year since I have had the vector 2x connected to my board but if you follow the instructions that Tom Brusehaver posted in contributed software everything should work ok. You will have to connect to one of the motor (...) (24 years ago, 4-Jul-00, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
