  brake broke?
 
I'm having trouble with braking (as opposed to free-wheeling) motors. When I use motor_a_dir(brake), the motor brakes OK, but cannot be restarted. Subsequent motor_a_dir(fwd/rev) calls have no affect, the motor stays braked. I can tell this by (...) (24 years ago, 18-Apr-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: NQC on Linux dilema...
 
(...) The first thing I'd try would be to add a pair of printf() statements before and after the tcdrain() call in PSerial_unix::FlushWrite() (in file platform/PSerial_unix.cpp).

  Re: VB 6 subprocedure stumper
 
If your subs won't be called more than once, you can create a VB procedure with the code and "call" it where you want the code. It will work like a C macro, inserting copies of that code whenever called and keeps your code organized. I know it is (...) (24 years ago, 14-Apr-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

  Re: how detect other RCX robots with light sensors?
 
Assuming both RCXs are facing each other, this can be done by using the IR transmitter of the RCX on the detected robot, and a forward pointing light sensor on the detecting robot. Set one robot (the detected robot) to send out constant IR messages. (...) (24 years ago, 15-Apr-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

I want to know if there another RCX infront of me at a maximum distance of 30cm. I tried to use only the light sensors but it was not enough. Does anyone has already tried this. Maybe putting some light in the RCX like infrared (I'm trying this). (...) (24 years ago, 14-Apr-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
