Ben, Internally, the RCX only works with integers, but .1 degree resolution was desired for temperature sensors, so the sensor values are actually measured in .1 degree increments. A reading of 70 degrees F is stored as 700, not 70. If you change (...) (24 years ago, 3-Jul-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

It's probably something simple and i'm about to embarrass myself, but I'm trying to write the equivalent of an RCX Code temperature sensor watcher with NQC. The motors don't seem to shut off, even when the temperature gets less than 70... (I added (...) (24 years ago, 3-Jul-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

if((BATTERY/0x0016)<700) dlcd_show(LCD_BATTERY_X); I always put this line on my programs. BATTERY/0x0016 gives the value in V*100 of all batteries open circuit voltage. <700 is the limit for rotation sensors to work (all the other sensors have (...)

Sorry about the long delay, I've been away. Demo.c is inaccessable because it was written for 0.1.7 and I've not yet had the time to update it. Unfortunately, this is going to be a semi-major task and so will probably be one of the last things to (...) (24 years ago, 2-Jul-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

(...) I've posted the source code for MacNQC (sorry it took so long): (URL) there are any serious takers for continuing MacNQC development, please let me know. About the only thing I'd be concerned about is that the project should stay MPL'ed. Dave (...) (24 years ago, 1-Jul-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

| | Re: running the motors underwater
|
|
(...) The main problem is that the motor isn't water prof. It's rusting inside and or the grease is breaking down. The motor will heat up while in use. This would cause a sealed motor to push the air past the rotating axle. Ok, now when the motor (...) (24 years ago, 29-Jun-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

A few years ago some kids I was working with were trying to outfit a LEGO boat with a paddle wheel and micromotor. While they were working, one kid got the idea that he was going to put a propellor onto one of the 4200 rpm motors, add wheels, and (...) (24 years ago, 29-Jun-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

I'm currently trying to recreate the JavaOne Mindstorms demo which Sun used in 1999 to show off its Jini(tm) capabilities. Will let you know once I succeed - at the moment the problems are more related to Java(tm) than anything else. -thomas (24 years ago, 28-Jun-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos, lugnet.robotics.rcx.java)
