    Nxc and Mindsensors stuff —Gian Piero Puccioni
    Hi, we just bought some sensors from mindsensor.com but I cannot find any info on how to use them with nxc. I have seen that b33 has two new API but there is no "generic" info on how to use them and the mindsensor.com site has no info or sample (...) (17 years ago, 12-Nov-07, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)

     It seems you don't have the latest NXC*.h header files (found in source release of NXC, not in the binary releases), as well as the latest NXC_Guide.pdf describing I2C functions. alf Il giorno 12-nov-2007, alle ore 16:59, GiP ha scritto: (...) -- (...)

     (...) Actually, I have them. But it didn't help, I tried to use the I2C functions and the usual SetSensorType but I cannot get a meaningful number, maybe I am doing something wrong. Does anyone have an example of a NXC program that read a (...) (17 years ago, 19-Nov-07, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)

     (...) I do not have the mindsensors DROD-Nx sensor but I have read the documentation from their website. It says that the sensor is an analog sensor which you can read using the standard NXT-G light sensor block. That means you need to configure the (...)

         Re: Nxc and Mindsensors stuff —Gian Piero Puccioni
     (...) Well, I use Linux so I completely skipped the part about NXT-G in the docs and I missed the reference to the light sensor. Anyway, that is sort of what I tried (I changed the original program so many times I am not sure). But probably I missed (...) (17 years ago, 27-Nov-07, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)

     (...) Thank you! But it worked only after firmware upgrade (to version 1.05) and using original NXT flat cables (Mindsensors flat cables are very poor quality). -- alf (17 years ago, 30-Nov-07, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)

   (...) To use the DIST-Nx sensor from mindsensors.com you can use the code at this url: (URL) sure you initialize the sensor using the correct type and properly energize it after you configure the port as a lowspeed port.
