(...) Sigh... "good luck"? I don't mean to sound too negative, but this is a hard nut to crack under the standard FW I think... at least I've yet to figure out a way to do it to my satisfaction. In fact, more than almost any other single point, this (...) (17 years ago, 31-May-07, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)

Hi, I tried to write some code to simulate the events like in RCX. It starts to look cluttered. I understand that NXT VM does not support events like you find in the RCX. Any suggestion will be greatly appreciated! Elizabeth (17 years ago, 31-May-07, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)

I have two bots set up some meaningful ack and nack conversation. However, when one bot/slave lost connection, e.g. terminated abruptly, the sender (master) does not notice that it indeed lost it. The ReceiveRemoteNumber(INBOX, true, ack) does not (...) (17 years ago, 31-May-07, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)

Hi, SetBrickDataName(str) seems to be able to only change the name of the nxt temporarily. Once the nxt is started, it loses the name assigned thru the SetBrickDataName earlier. Idea? --Elizabeth (17 years ago, 31-May-07, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)

(...) Well, if by "more qualified" you mean "have abused their hardware harder than average, yes :-). Since day 1 I've back-driven the NXT motors by hand, including the magic motor demo (not as efficient with the NXT motors, but it does work), using (...)

(...) Well, I don't want to claim to be an expert, but I'll tell you what I've done. I have a couple remotes that I've been using for over a year, and I haven't had problems with them. One not only uses the rotation sensors, but also uses the motors (...) (17 years ago, 29-May-07, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)

Hand crank it alone should be find. As a matter of fact, that's how we demonstrate to kids a generator. However, just to be on the safe side, I would recommend you not to hand crank it when it is hooked onto to the power source, especially when it (...) (17 years ago, 28-May-07, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)

(...) John, there are a lot of people using the NXT motors this way, just to get the feedback from the built-in rotation sensors. The best example would be the MDPers who built one joystick with a NXT kit to control a moving vehicle made with (...) (17 years ago, 28-May-07, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)

Hi John, I would not think so, as the NXT's own construction guide has a pick and place (blue ball, red ball) robot, that has hand cranks to move it into position. Danny (...) (17 years ago, 28-May-07, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)
