  Broken charger board...still broken
 
Hi all, just in case anyone feels like helping, I thought I'd post an update on the current (and very sick) state of the charger/interface board I accidently turbocharged by plugging the 120V adapter into a 240V outlet. As stated in a previous (...) (22 years ago, 27-Jan-02, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Garmin GPS25-LVS
 
I am working on a robotic blimp project. I've acquired the Garmin GPS25-LVS receiver and I want to use it with the HandyBoard to control the blimp. Does anybody have a schematic that would show how to connect this GPS system to the HandyBoard, and (...) (22 years ago, 24-Jan-02, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Re: Probably burned serial interface -- need help
 
Thanks to all who offered help. But I'm afraid I may need some more... In response to some questions: Yes the pop came from the board, not the wall-mounted adapter, and yes, I do have a voltmeter. But it hadn't occurred to me to check the testing (...) (22 years ago, 23-Jan-02, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Re: Compiling .icb files /Farnsworth files
 
I thought originally you were interested in building .icb files, not rebuilding the pcode file. If you want to rebuild the pcode, you need the HB distribution of the pcode, which is at (URL) . There's also a makefile that has the flags for building (...) (22 years ago, 23-Jan-02, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

  Re: Compiling .icb files /Farnsworth files
 
Fred, I've enclosed the section of the README that applies to my question: To build pcode for other robot boards, follow the instructions below. Copy the 'build_rw.bat' file to another, and replace the GCC command -D variables to the following for (...) (22 years ago, 23-Jan-02, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

where did you hear the pop? in the wall-mounted transformer device, or the serial int board? fred (...) (22 years ago, 22-Jan-02, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Probably burned serial interface -- need help
 
Hi all, yesterday I mistakenly plugged the 110V/9V AC adapter that feeds the Charger/serial interface into a 220V power supply (I live in NZ but used to live in the US and have a weird mix of appliances, converters, and transformers). After a few (...) (22 years ago, 22-Jan-02, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Compiling .icb files /Farnsworth files
 
Howdy Fred, Yes, I did download the zip file from the HB site. As11_ic.bat is present. One question I have is with regards to the various references to Rev 2.1, Rev 2.2, et cetera, in the README file. How do these references relate to my V1.21 HB (...)
