  Re: memcpy patch for gcc 2.95.2 wanted
 
(...) Could you describe the bug to us more clearly, i.e. what was the produced code, and what did you modify, so others won't run into the same trouble again, please? Thanks, Eddie C. Dost ecd@skynet.be (25 years ago, 25-Mar-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: memcpy patch for gcc 2.95.2 wanted
 
I've been able to fix my code by hand modifying the assembler code that is produced and using that instead of the .c code. I'm concerned, however, that the bug in GCC might manifest itself in other ways. Is there a patch for GCC available somewhere? (...) (25 years ago, 25-Mar-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Priority problem...
 
With a simple program... I have a task watching a touch sensor. If the task is given PRIO_NORMAL I am able to read the sensor in the task... If the task is given PRIO_NORMAL-1, I can't. I have checked the execi return values in both cases and in (...) (25 years ago, 24-Mar-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  memcpy patch for gcc 2.95.2 wanted
 
In an attempt to track down my RCX lockup problems I've been rereading the older messages and came across the discussion that sounded exactly like my problem: the RCX locks up when dll is executed. The conclusion was that bad code was generated for (...) (25 years ago, 24-Mar-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  My first NQC
 
I just have to share - I know it's very basic, but it's my first program with NQC! and it's even cooler, since I can now use my 486 to program the RCX, and don't need to steal computer time from my wife's Windows :P I just wrote a little prog to run (...)

  Running IR in the background
 
Hi all Is there any way to switch the IR LED on and leave it on. (as a kind of a headlight for the light sensor.) Alternatively, what is the easiest way to just send a comtinuous string of 0's so it's on at least a lot of the time, without taking (...) (25 years ago, 23-Mar-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: infrared remote control of LEGO trains using NQC and RCX
 
(...) Maybe. I doubt it, though. :-) US locos need their tenders attached and I think loco's we've seen posted already may have size issues, for instance Dan's Big Boy. were someone to build an Erie Triplex, that would be even bigger.

I'm don't agree with this, because you can use it also in buildings to switch lights in /out, controlling windmills, bridges as well, and this all over the same wires, witch are in this case the track !

  Re: infrared remote control of LEGO trains using NQC and RCX
 
First, let me apologize for mistyping NQC as NCQ. Hey Ben! Hope those rumors are true. So if they are going to do something with remote switches and such, will it be similar to DCC or radio/infrared control? I'm guessing some form of remote control. (...)

  Re: infrared remote control of LEGO trains using NCQ and RCX
 
Hi Ben F.! Maybe all your work is a little needless, since there are rumors going around here in Germany, saying Lego is going to invent new more realistic trains next year, or even late this year around X-mas...... I've heared about it from a (...) (25 years ago, 22-Mar-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc, lugnet.trains)

  Re: infrared remote control of LEGO trains using NCQ and RCX
 
Thanks Dan. Actually, I just came up with this myself but I added a float line as follows to stop it a little more gracefully. if (__speed == 0) {Float(OUT_A);} I'm pretty pleased with the results now. Hopefully I'll be able to avoid those train (...) (25 years ago, 22-Mar-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc, lugnet.trains)
 
  Re: infrared remote control of LEGO trains using NCQ and RCX
 
(...) you never check if your speed is 0 in this task - IMO, you need to add: if (__speed == 0) {Off(OUT_A)}; (I'm guessing here, since I haven't really done any NCQ myself yet. :/ Dan (25 years ago, 22-Mar-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc, lugnet.trains)
 
  infrared remote control of LEGO trains using NCQ and RCX
 
When I first bought my RCX some time ago, I dreamed of using the remote control to drive the train. Well I think I finally have it working. The following code works but has a problem which perhaps somebody can help me with. The program looks for (...) (25 years ago, 22-Mar-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc, lugnet.trains)
 
  Locks when downloading
 
When I download any .LX file my RCX locks up with the left motor (output A) running and requires that I pull the batteries to recover. I'm not sure what is causing this, though the obvious reason is the use of the new tools I recently built (DJGPP (...) (25 years ago, 22-Mar-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
