  Re: Lightsensor
 
(...) This are normal values for a light sensor. The values depend on the light in the room and the properties of the thing you're looking on (with the lightsensor). I use 40 for the border between white and black and it works well. Rainer (24 years ago, 27-Dec-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  Latest Version of Cygwin
 
Hi folks, does anyone out there have problems with the latest version of cygwin, i.e a non-compile problem. I was using cygwin-b20 and it worked a treat on my win2k machine, but with the latest version (116), the compiler seems to die, it makes a (...)

  Lightsensor
 
Hi all, as a newbie I have a problem in the training center with my new 1.5 RIS. The lightsensor shows only a range of 37/47 in view-mode between black and white. (and so it doesn´t beep) Is this normal or due to a msfunction of the sensor ? Thomas (24 years ago, 25-Dec-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

  Re: Serial to USB Adapters for iMac
 
(...) "no reply from RCX" is probably not an adapter problem. My first guess would be that the RCX doesn't have firmware loaded (If you see "00.00" on the display, firmware is loaded, if you just see an icon and "1", then it isn't). Second guess (...)

I am having sever problems figuring out how to get the rotary sensor to do what I want it to with RCX Code.

  Configuration Management
 
I've written a bash shell script to create a release archive of legOS. Unlike most projects on SourceForge, legOS doesn't actually have a build process, it's simply a matter of packaging up the files. There are two files, the script itself (I call (...)

  Re: newbie question
 
(...) I guess the motors with Lego firmware are only floating and not breaked in the impulse-pause. With legOS you have breaked motors in the impulse-pause. If you would not use legOS try pulsing it yourself with brake an slow. Rainer (24 years ago, 23-Dec-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

I have been playing around with controlling LEGO trains with the control lab and the RCX but keep bumping in to the same problem. I need the motor output to be smoother and slower.

Hey, everyone. I've released a new version of legOS- 0.2.5. For the most part, this is a maintenance release- a few small fixed here and there.
