  Re: Assembly in my C-program
 
Actually I am trying to control a stepper motor. So when i need to send 50 pulses fast, motor on and off takes same time because there same other tasks running at the same time. So it would be much quicker if I could just call motor speed (50), and (...) (24 years ago, 28-Mar-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: Electrical Data Link between 2 RCXs
 
Hi Dean, thanks for your interesting idea for a reduction of transmission time. I will deal with that as soon as possible. Your questions: (...) Version 2.0 (...) No. Do you think that is faster? (...) No, just the transmission program. (...) Good (...) (24 years ago, 28-Mar-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
 
  Re: Electrical Data Link between 2 RCXs
 
Hi Marco, it is always interesting how many other people in the world do have the same problems or are dealing with the same subject. Sometimes I had the feeling that I dealt with "exotic" problems but then I realized that other "Mindstormers" had (...) (24 years ago, 28-Mar-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc, lugnet.robotics)

  Assembly in my C-program
 
HI, I was wondering if I could write assembly code in my c-program. I would like to access the motor output port as a digital port and control when it is on and when off (possibly writting something like "mov.b r6l,@0xf000:16"). Or can I change the (...)

  Re: Release date for RCX 2.0?
 
Only for RCX! But you can use NQC. Zhengrong (...) (24 years ago, 28-Mar-01, to lugnet.year.2001, lugnet.robotics.rcx)

  Re: Running IR in the background

We use an active light sensor reading in one taks, with a different task bangin zeroes using (...) (24 years ago, 28-Mar-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: .lx format
 
(...) We arrived at that solution independently here... it makes more sense. Also, since only the parts of the kernel we actually use need to be linked in, the result should be much smaller than a full kernel. Furthermore, the compiler we are using (...)

(...) of (...) For the IAR compiler, this should not a problem. The libraries are optimized for minimal size, so we can probably use the standard libraires. And give our students the benefit of a full C lib. /jakob (24 years ago, 28-Mar-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: Neural network for legOS... ??

Sorry Niels, but I would say just try it yourself, they're not that hard to do, failing that if you can find the source for a small ANN, then that stands a good chance of working, I'm running quite a powerful evolutionary algorithm on mine, (...)

  Re: Running IR in the background
 
Hannes, I got it to work last night. I'm modifying Markus Noga rover.c code (included when you download legos files) to include support for IR port and (passive) light sensor. Great code to look at if you're just learning C/C++. Basically, the (...) (24 years ago, 27-Mar-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: light sensor multiplexer
 
Hi Nitin, thanks for your information. You know, by asking questions, you'll get the answers often from yourself. Just when I posted the question to you, Eureka.

Hi Bernd :) I see we're working in the same subject here :) *great* If you care to browse lugnet.robotics old thread "VLL *input* for RCX/CyberMaster (in NQC) ?" or the newer one, starting with "CM-RCX" (the subject had some variations) Your (...)

  Re: Running IR in the background
 
(...) Commentary below. (...) I must have missed this one the first time around. lnp_logical_write() will block, but it should only block the thread it's called from. Put your send-zero loop in a separate thread and I think you should be set. (24 years ago, 27-Mar-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: New Group?
 
Hi All, Although I started with NCQ I've used Gordon's Brick Programmer quite a bit. Its neat for putting things together quickly and I use the library import screen a lot to reuse bits from old projects. I'd like to hear about how other people use (...)

Hannes, Did you ever get any help with your question (below)? I'm trying to use the IR port on RCX along with light sensor (passive) as collision detection device. Having the same problems you're having. Clayton (...) (24 years ago, 27-Mar-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: light sensor multiplexer
 
Hi Stef, sorry for little late. What I am doing is that I need to get the voltahge down and most efficient way of doing that without losing swing ( if you divide you lose swing too) is level shift it and you can do it by putting by Zener. I need (...) (24 years ago, 27-Mar-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
