Hi Ed, I have found that training OmniRemote works best if you don't hold the Palm too close to the LEGO IR tower and the room is dim. When you train OmniRemote the settings are updated in the OmniRemote.PDB file (the program file is Remote.PRC). (...) (26 years ago, 8-Dec-99, to lugnet.robotics.palm)

Hello - I've downloaded and implemented Robert Eddings' OmniRemote.PDB to my Palm IIIx, but I'm going to retrain the buttons, as some don't work, and some work intermittently. Robert has noted that training the OmniRemote was not consistant - do you (...) (26 years ago, 8-Dec-99, to lugnet.robotics.palm)

Robert, you don't need to set the frequency. Just set the baud rate to a high frequency. Like 76K. Then try the things we talked about via email. MIke Robert Eddings <webmake@bellsouth.net> wrote in message news:38484B10.636C8C...uth.net... (...) (26 years ago, 4-Dec-99, to lugnet.robotics.palm)

Mike, I've done quite a bit of investigating and I can't find a way to change the Palm IR transmission frequency. The IR library is supposed to allow low level configuration of the IR port but I don't see any way to set the frequency. This seems (...) (26 years ago, 3-Dec-99, to lugnet.robotics.palm)

(...) Hmm. On the OmniRemote website, they make this statement: "The (3Com OS3.0 upgrade card) IR is more powerful than a true Palm III, more powerful than the OmniRemote Module and sometimes even more than the original remote." This leads me to (...) (26 years ago, 23-Nov-99, to lugnet.robotics.palm)

Thanks for all the nice comments. I've spent some time searching the web about IR. Since the Palm uses the IrDA standard and so do PCs, I figured that someone must have written some sort of remote control for PCs. And maybe they would have source (...)

Mike, I like the improvements you made to LRemote and the new web site looks great. The section on connecting to the tower that shows the minifig laying buzz saw to cable is just too funny! One suggestion is that when you describe taking the back (...) (26 years ago, 18-Nov-99, to lugnet.robotics.palm)

Howdy, version 1.1 of LRemote is available. I added the ability to control motor C--use the up and down scroll buttons to make it go forward and reverse. Also added some visual feedback when you press the arrows. Don't forget to check out Carl (...) (26 years ago, 17-Nov-99, to lugnet.robotics.palm)

The problem with programming the built-in IR in the Palm is that one needs to access and control the hardware directly. You can't use the normal programming interfaces for controlling the IR. This requires an in-depth knowledge of IR protocol and (...) (26 years ago, 12-Nov-99, to lugnet.robotics.palm)
