  sending output to LCD possible?
 
I skimmed through the NQC docs but I didn't see anything about sending messages to the display on the RCX. Is it possible? More specifically, sending the value of a variable to the display? I have a little robot that I plan to use to count things, I (...) (25 years ago, 3-Apr-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
 
  Re: RIS 2.0 PreAlpha SDK
 
(...) I believe the PBBattery() command is very different from using the Battery 'data source'. Specifically, the command is direct only (after all, there's no equivalent within a program for the response data from a command). However, data sources (...)

  RE: Checksum download of text to RCX
 
(...) This is a neat idea, Ernst. I think it would be a good addition to the pbForth system if we can allow the user to use it for text uploads and then switch to normal mode for interactive use. (...) I'll have to think about this a bit.. (...) (...) (25 years ago, 2-Apr-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.pbforth)
 
  Checksum download of text to RCX
 
I wrote a simple addition to pbforth that allows it to receive text with a checksum across every line. Every line is ACK/NAK-ed and if necessary resent. Timeouts are not implemented. Now, the main word looks like this: : PBX-RECEIVE ( -- ) BEGIN (...) (25 years ago, 2-Apr-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.pbforth)  
 
  Re: 0.2.4 coming?
 
(...) I suppose you could call what is in CVS at sourceforge 0.2.4, especially after someone adds in Ross's patches, 0.2.4. The advantage of CVS is that we can now all get /the/ most up-to-date version of legOS. The disadvantage is that what you are (...) (25 years ago, 2-Apr-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

  Re: RIS 2.0 PreAlpha SDK
 
(...) Check out page 11. It states that it's DIRECT only. Not program. That's what I gather anyway... Dean -- Coin-Op's For Sale!: (URL) Lego Workshop: (URL) Lego Club: (URL) (25 years ago, 2-Apr-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)  
 
  Re: NQC and RIS2.0 Firmware
 
(...) I found the problem... When verifying the checksum, the ROM scans [8000, cc00). Since it zeros out this area initially, this would indeed reflect the checksum of the firmware, provided it is less than 4400 bytes long (in hex). NQC sums the (...)

  Re: RIS 2.0 PreAlpha SDK
 
(...) Check out page 7 of the LASM Byte Codes doc. They've added a lot more data "sources" including one for the battery level. This means you'll be able to use the battery level the same way you currently can read Timers, the Watch, etc. Too bad (...) (25 years ago, 2-Apr-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)  
 
  Re: NQC and RIS2.0 Firmware
 
(...) I've been looking at that for most of today. The 2489 is basically the last packet to go to the RCX, and the error is a "checksum error" coming back from the RCX. As far as I can tell, nqc breaks with any firmware file bigger than 20K (...) (25 years ago, 2-Apr-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
