  NQC and Fixed Point Values
 
My recent project, with NQC, has started to demand calculations with fractional numbers. In an effort to do this, I have quickly come to know the sorted world of floating points, BCDs, 1 – 2 s complement etc. I realize the only way to go about all (...)

  Re: Using 'containers' in Robolab
 
Thanks to you and Ben Irwin for your replies. After considerable beating my head against the wall I found my mistake: For the value in the angle container I had a constant instead of 'value of port 2' modifier. I surely will not forget that one.

  Re: Electrical Data Link between 2 RCXs
 
It's me again with some improvements for an "Electrical Data Link between 2 RCX". In the current version I changed the default condition of the link to "high" (in the transmitter: OFF(OUT_B)) so that the receiver has a 1 at its sensor input. So, you (...)

  RE: New RcxCC revision posted
 
Hi, Ok, so, I got home, downloaded the .zip, installed it on my "LegoStation" (a 486 with RCX2 on COM2 and CyberMaster on COM3) over the last version. I think this was the "3.2 May 16th" Version. Started up, defined the window sizes and positions (...) (23 years ago, 17-Apr-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

(...) Be sure to use the most recent version to test the startup options. I tested it the other day and it seemed slightly broken but the last round of fixes which I uploaded on Saturday may have fixed the problems. I'll be doing some more testing (...)

  Re: RoboLab prg size limit?
 
(...) There are some minor bugs in Robolab 1.5, so I always use version 2.01 or higher. If you email me the program, I would be happy to play with it. (23 years ago, 16-Apr-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab)
 
  Re: Using 'containers' in Robolab
 
(...) What version of Robolab are you using? I use Robolab 2.01 and have not had the problems you are describing. As an example of using the Angle Sensor, I tried the program: Empty Container - Blue Zero Angle Sensor - Port 1 Wait 2 Play Sound 5 (...) (23 years ago, 16-Apr-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab)
 
  RE: Internet Controlled Robots
 
What a strange coincident. I had just posted the message when I went to my mailbox to find an examination copy of your text. I immediately checked to see if your text included any information and of course found it. You text is wonderful and as I (...)

Jerry, (...) What kinds of numbers to see on the display and what kinds of numbers do you see in the container? Can you send me your program? or at least post an image of it somewhere? :) (23 years ago, 16-Apr-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab)

  Using 'containers' in Robolab
 
I'm having a bad time with the use of containers. I have an angle-container and then a container-fork. I was careful to use a (blue) modifier for both of them, set the port number on the angle-container and the specified number to the (...) (23 years ago, 14-Apr-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab)

  Fast data acquistion on PC from RCX ?
 
I want to do fast data acquistion (100 samples/second) continuously with the RCX and transport the data in realtime to a PC. I'm building a oscilloscope to monitor sensors and globals variables on the PC, a bit like "Mr. Sensor Program" (URL) was (...) (23 years ago, 14-Apr-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

  Wishlist leJOS
 
Hi! I'm a leJos newbie, but at a glance, I miss the logging functions that I think NQC has, the ability to store numbers in the RCX for later upload. Is ther a chance that it will be implemented ? At least I would appreciate it Björn Lundin (23 years ago, 13-Apr-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.java)
 
  Re: Which way is faster?
 
By "fastest", I assume you mean the smallest worst case latency between a condition happening and the RCX responding to it. Option #2 has the drawback that while the RCX is responding to one condition, it won't be looking for the other ones. So the (...) (23 years ago, 13-Apr-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
