(...) What you request is shared memory and shared memory is not a part of legOS. My way to simulate shared mem is to put the two (or more) tasks into one legOS program.

Well the concern there is that RIS2.0 uses a USB IR tower - which is not natively supported by W95. If you can get USB working, then you might be alright... HTH, James. (...) (23 years ago, 20-Dec-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx, lugnet.robotics)

Has anyone succeeded in getting the upgrade to work on less-than-minimum-requirement PCs? In their infinite wisdom, LEGO has "upgraded" the minimum platform for the RIS.

| | LNP: host address

Is there a reason to "hardcode" the host address using a define (LNP_HOSTADDR)? Things would be easier for me if I could change the address at run time (when calling lnp_init). Is it safe to replace the defines by a variable? Eric (23 years ago, 21-Dec-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

Next question: Does any one have a proximity routne (code) I can review (steal) using LegOS, a light sensor, and the IR port? I've used the NQC stuff, but now I've moved up to LegOS.

|

In NQC, I can use ClearTimer(0) and Timer(0) to get interval of time, how can I do it in legOS? I used t1 = sys_time, then t2 = sys_time, so interval = t2 - t1, is it correct? Zhengrong (23 years ago, 18-Dec-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

hi All, Inspired by some applications of the 16F84 PIC, we came up with the idea to make a IR-module, which is capable of doing all the InfraRed tasks we could imagine with the RCX. Well it hasn't come so far, but we have build a RCX IR-remote (...) (23 years ago, 17-Dec-01, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.robotics.rcx, lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
