Hello Community, can direct connection of two NXTs (port4) with normal Lego-cables damage any parts or drivers ? Normally I use a special cable (Pins 3,5,6) to use the RS485 communication to another NXT, but some guys told me, they have used the (...) (17 years ago, 5-Aug-07, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)

(...) I would guess that 99% of the time that you get a File Error abend in an NXT program it is because of trying to access an element beyond the end of the array. I'm glad you were able to figure the problem out quickly. It would be nice if the (...) (17 years ago, 5-Aug-07, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)

Hello, I have an NBC program which compiles fine and the previous versions of it were working as expected.

Since there is no event in nxc. Is there anyway to interrupt this call via a Off(OUT_AC) in another task? RotateMotor(OUT_AC, 20, 800); I could have used a time Wait after onFwd. However, This will not allow me to get a more previous degree turning. (...) (17 years ago, 3-Aug-07, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)

There are three steps to reading an I2C message from a sensor. 1. Send a message to the I2C sensor to initiate the read. Look at the program "NXT HiTechnic Accelerometer" in the RobotC sample programs folder for an example that you can clone. (...) (17 years ago, 1-Aug-07, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)
