Of course, then again I could look and see that there already is a lego-doc.sourceforge.net. Now whether or not TLG approves of that URL is another matter (I was trying to think of another option, since Lego doesn't want "lego" in a URL.) The rest (...)

Hey, y'all- Sorry to say that this has been a long week, so while I've looked into the annotation system somewhat, I haven't gotten anything running yet. I hope to look into it further tonight- the php web site has some very nice and open code that (...) (25 years ago, 4-Feb-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

| | How good is the light sensor ?
|

Hello, I just bought a Mindstorm set and am testing it out. When I went through the tutorial on the CD I could not get the motors to stop when the light sensor was activated. When I loaded Legos (thanks Rossz), I ran the demo program linetrack and (...) (25 years ago, 3-Feb-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

Ooops, Figured it out. When you set the RCXTTY variable, leave out the spaces. ie: set RCXTTY=com4 NOT: set RCXTTY = com4 The whitespace is not parsed out by the MS-DOS command line. Now that I have the frmdl3.exe and dll.exe recognizing com4, I'm (...) (25 years ago, 3-Feb-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

Thanks for the info, I tried setting the environment variable (running Win 95) RCXTTY=com4 without much effect. I did get frmdl3.exe to send out to com4 with the following: frmdl3.exe --tty=com4 legOS.srec However, dll.exe still won't send via com4. (...) (25 years ago, 3-Feb-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

Hi again! I did not get any answers for my previous question about this, and I am still puzzled as for why light sensor readings for a dark background have 0x1F0 added to them once in a while (more often than not, actually) any ideas for what might (...)

(...) Unfortunately, the problem is not ambient light. I was trying this in a dark room at night. The only light source in the room was the monitor. I really think we can rule out the tower since my friends RCX loads with my IR tower just fine, and (...) (25 years ago, 3-Feb-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
