Is it possible to put up a non-Post Script version? I don't have a viewer that can display this type of document. Perhaps a plain .txt or .html version? Thanks Dave (...) (24 years ago, 29-Sep-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

| | Scout poweroff time out?
|
|
I've just finished a very cool Camera mount that can be controlled via the web. (Linux, NQC & PHP) I've decided to use my scout because it's so limited. I've noticed one point and can't seem to see away way around this. I'm hoping someone can help. (...) (24 years ago, 29-Sep-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc, lugnet.robotics.scout)

Stig Nielsson has written excellent documentation on the internals of the kernel. I learned a heck of a lot going through it- I think this makes Stig our new designated kernel expert :) Anyway, you can read it here: (URL) you have any comments or (...)

|
|
I was programming a "scanbot" from the Definitive Guide and wanted to install a bumper as I noticed the robot would run into things periocically while "searching" for the light. I wrote some code as follows: void check_bump { if (BUMP == 1) { (...) (24 years ago, 27-Sep-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

(...) you won't be able to use LNP - those packets are completely different from the Lego firmware ones. You'll need to write bytes directly to the serial port (I'm not sure what support there is for this in legOS since once you start munging the (...) (24 years ago, 27-Sep-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

(...) Do you have the sensor at a place where one rotation of the sensor = 360 degrees of whatever you're turning? I'd suggest putting it somewhere where it rotates a lot more times than the actual turntable. (You need a touch sensor for 0 this way, (...) (24 years ago, 26-Sep-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

(...) Dave, Thanks for the reply, I had a bad feeling it would be this way. If that wasn't bad enough it keeps losing 2 points when stepped from 0 to 16 and back again... Most annoying.

This will have the same problem - in fact the generated code is probably identical (except for perhaps order) to just (...) (24 years ago, 26-Sep-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
