The NXT firmware does not support a single operation which has the motor run to
a specific tachometer limit and then brake.  The only way to do what you would
like to do involves several operations.  But you can wrap it all up into a
reusable block (aka subroutine).

Just yesterday I uploaded a new program to the NBC Samples page which includes a
subroutine which does what you want.  See the Motors.zip on the Samples page.
In the zip is a program called rot_test.nbc.  It has a sample subroutine and
parameterized macro which encapsulates the subroutine call.

I started playing with NBC, and wanted to run the motor until it hits the tachometer limit, and then brake. I have been unable to make this happend with one setout opcode. Is it possible? Is it possible to make the opcode wait until the tacho limit (...) (20 years ago, 1-Oct-06, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)
