  Robot positioning
 
Hello all, I am currently building a H board/exp board based robot that has (will have) the following sensors: Diffrential drive wheel encoders, hamamatsu sensors combined with the software from the H board site for motor control and distance counts (...)

  Follow-up to Virus
 
It is amazing what can be recovered off a disk, with the right tools. This is the data on the virus files. The document, final1r....doc, within the zip file 478eti.zip is the culprit. "This file was quarantined.f M The file (...) (24 years ago, 11-Jul-00, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  File Contains Virus
 
There is a file located on one of the HB sites that contains the Melissa W97 virus. It begins with 478... I am sorry that I can not give you more info as the virus scanning software removed the file, but if you maintain a server with HB files on it, (...)

  Re: four polariod sonars
 
Hi, I read the design a while back... Don't you just control the multiplexor circuit on the handyboard and then call the sonar routines? All sonar use the same routine, aren't they? -- Ray JULIAN REYES <handyboard@media.mit.edu> wrote in message (...) (24 years ago, 11-Jul-00, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Re: Handyboard startup problems
 
Yes, I encounter something similar. Do you use servo on your board? I also have some trouble with the motor ports. I am not sure what causes it. I also have trouble with the motor ports. When I run the motor at 50% power (back or forward), both red (...) (24 years ago, 10-Jul-00, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  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)

  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. (...)
