Hi, I am trying to use the 100 step motor code and a Hb expansion board. I can get either one of them to work ALONE ONLY. So I can only use the expansion board. OR the 100 step pcode, How do I install both so they dont conflict with one another. (...) (24 years ago, 13-Sep-00, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

Hello, I work with a Handy Board and an other board based on 68hc11E2. The first is master and the second is slave. The SPI communication is OK between 2 boards. The first send the position of servos to the second. At the start, all is OK. After 2 (...) (24 years ago, 13-Sep-00, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

Hi You can only run the counter 4x slower as now. But in this case, the complete HB works 4x times slower, so this isn't a usefull solution. The other possibility is the use the overflow flag and integers. I didn't solve that problem. For more (...) (24 years ago, 13-Sep-00, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

Hello, my problem is that peekword returns an int. I need a long. Is there a way around this in Interactive C??? (24 years ago, 12-Sep-00, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

| | Interactive C question can you cast an int to a long?
|
|
Hi, I have an interactive C question, I'd like to return this: return peekword(0x1014) - start_time; as a long.. since this is why there's a distance limit in the sonar.c code. Can I return this as a long? (24 years ago, 12-Sep-00, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

|
|
Hi, I was playing with my handyboard's sonar.. The distance limitation is in the code, since we are using integers we are limited to -32,778 to 32,768.. and that's why I am at @15 ft limit. After we change the sonar code to longs the problem is (...) (24 years ago, 12-Sep-00, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

IC can't sample the A/D converters that quickly. As long as you're generating a nice squarewave you could connect it to one of the input capture pins and write a custom interrupt routine to maintain the count. --Chuck (...) (24 years ago, 10-Sep-00, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

hi. you can certainly tap the 9.6v batt output to power the sensor (use J13), but make *sure* that the sensor does not put out more than 5v, or you'll blow your analog inputs. if you're not sure, put a 1K resistor in series with the sensor's output (...)
